Brad, I haven't had to do this to the KLR but the rattling of the chain/sprockets on both the KLX650R and the ZG1000 drove me nuts. Yes do the above if it is loose. All three 'appear' to use the same adjuster on my three. (depending on the model year for some) So remove the larger center bolt of the adjuster and insert screwydriver/extension and push... It would be good to be at TDC for minimum cam load. Dan Paulsen Graham WA> for the cam chain but doesn't get into how to manually set the > tension.
