Hello,
I took my slider off because it done wore out. But I forgot how it goes back and I can't find directions here either. Normally I can see David in the alabaster but not today. Does anyone have a picture? I can't find it in the manual either other than "refresh as needed."

Thanks for help. I'm new to this and still do stupid shit.

Is it really an adventure bike if its wheels never see dirt?

Thanks guys for your replies and photos and thanks mustang for giving me the correct term to search (isn't a slider a small burger anyway?). The chain is on and no longer flopping like a fat man jogging.

Is it possible it runs better with a new slider?

It may feel smoother because you don't have the vibrations from a chain rubbing on metal. I can always tell if my chain needs adjusting by the way it shifts. I usually run it a bit on the loose side, only because I do lots of long touring on it, and I carry quite a load when I do :icon_redface:
