*: {{#ev:youtube|_jfXixlzbf0}}
;Tools
* [[Lift|Center lift]].
* 27mm socket for the rear axle nut.
* 3mm Allen key.
* 10mm Allen key socket
*: Ensure at least 1" depth and a ⅜" drive sufficient to handle swingarm pivot bolt torques.
* 15mm socket wrench (S models).
* 13mm socket wrench (X models).
* Torque wrench capable of setting 75ft-lbs and driving the 27mm socket and 10mm Allen key.
* 2012-2013:
** 2.5mm Allen key.
** 24mm socket wrench.
* (2013-2017?) 6mm Allen key and wrench to remove the rear sprocket pulley from the rear wheel.
* (2018?) T45 Torx bit and wrench to remove the rear sprocket pulley from the rear wheel.
;Prerequisites
# [[Rear Wheel Removal|Remove the rear wheel]].
# [[Swingarm Removal|Remove the swingarm]].
;Recommendations
* For any chain fitment, wait until running the chain over the sprockets (and probably through the guide) before unlinking the chain and fitting a master link for its final length.
*: Any mistakes in length estimation require more chain tool use which is just adding risk.
;Steps
* {{disclaimer|TBD, but the OEM should supply instructions}}
