BMW F650GS Chain Adjustment

- 2012 f650gs 800cc machine, non-lowered (but spec mentioned in video for lowered version). Torque spec for nut is 100nm. Note my chain started getting surface rust within 10 minutes of washing the machine due to the incredibly high humidity and high temperature here in the desert during the Monsoon season. I was surprised by this in that I use PJ1 Chain Lube every 1000 miles or after each thorough washing. Never use Permanent Strength or High Strength Loc-Tite on the adjuster nut - only use low or medium strength, if you use any at all. Same with 3-Bond - use only a small amount of low strength if you use any at all!
Hallo Cristian. Camera is Canon T3i. Focus problem is because my camera helper (my son) is away at college now. I have to hold the camera, record, do the work all at the same time. I will get better at it - I am starting to use a tripod now. Thanks for watching our videos. I miss working in Germany! It is very hot, hot, hot here in the USA desert southwest!
You also need to check that the wheels lines up after!
Hallo James, danke for your answer. I understand where the problem was. However I like your presentations and are curious to see what you will present us.
Mit freundlichen Grüßen,

Don't skip any parts next time. I'd like to see the in-between moments and exactly how you were measuring and adjusting things
A ruler that measures in both “English” and “Metric”. Excellent !! LOL!!!
Thanks friend. Very helpful
Thanks for watching!
Hallo, meine Name ist Cristian (from Cologne, D) and are a subscriber of your channel. I find great what you do and presentations are very clear and interesting, but I have a small inconvenience. I do not know what type of camera you use but I notice that some videos are poorly focused. Only a small observation on my part. Gruss Gott! :)
respectfully

you have a 150/70 r17 tyre, but on my F650GS i only have 140/80 R17 how did you get allowed to do this mod?
+Andrea Bruno The tire that is on the bike in this video is the one it came with. The dealer did change the tires out for some more offroad-oriented ones before I bought it, though, so perhaps that's why they're a different size. You can replace your stock tires with whatever size you wish, though, unless your road laws disallow it (here in the US where the bike is kept, there are no regulations on tire size for cars, trucks, or motorcycles).
Which tyres are fitted in your GS?
Porto Rider They're Heidenau, though I don't remember the model and the bike is at another of my houses so unfortunately I can't check at the moment. They are actually pretty good tyres if you ride offroad, and last a good bit of time. Thanks for watching!
Heidenau K60
DO NOT USE WD40
How about showing us what you're doing instead of just tellingbus
