I don't think I have a problem but I am curious anyway. You know how all of the sudden you notice something and then you might dwell on it until you think you have a problem? Well on my way home from work I was in heavy traffic on the freeway and I was goofing off giving her throttle then letting off doing it again and so on. Well it seemed as though there was quite a bit of slack when going from accelerating to engine braking and from engine braking back to accelerating. I though well maybe it's time to adjust the chain. When I got home I put it on the centerstand and found that the chain is good, dry but good none the less. After I lube the chain, with the bike still on it's centerstand, I put it in first gear and rotated the rear tire. I seems to move about 20 degrees in both directions within this (what I am calling) transmission slack. I'm thinking this is probably normal and I'm just being paranoid, but FZ Forum Assurance would make me feel a lot better.

And if someone could give me a technical word for the slack that is the subject of this post it would be much appreciated.
