Default Recommend chain tension
Can anyone tell me how much slack/play should be on the drive chain. It's a 2016 JetMoto 150cc quad.

Really no reason to post the question in 3 different areas. I usually set mine to roughly 1/4" deflection on the bottom of the chain

Sorry I wasn't aware I did that. This is the first forum I've ever used, please forgive me if I broke a sacred forum rule.
