OK, I'm pretty new to working on bikes, so this may be a dumb question, but...
I took off the inspection cover to check the slack in the chain, and it's kinda hard to get an accurate measure of how much upplay I have in the chain. Is there any kind of trick to get an accurate measure, or do you just sort of go by feel. It's a pretty tight squeeze getting my hand in there far enough to push up on the chain, I can't figure a good way to get a way to measure the upplay as I push on the chain.
