Edit2: also liked how the chain slider mount will not allow the rear wheel to be adjusted fully forward. The tires will strike the portion that protrudes inside of the swing arm. I think I may trim that part off. Go-go gadget grinder lol

Brand new rider so please excuse my ignorance.
I bought the Templar M, which the only thing I can tell that’s different from the X, is the adjustable shocks, and the 6speed. It came with the back rack and passenger pegs and everything to tag it. I won’t ever put it on the road, so the 5 speed works for me. A couple of questions, if I could get some help please. This is a great forum.
The videos on YT are showing about 3 finger widths of chain slack? The thread above is saying less then 1/2”? I’m not really doing any huge jumping, but 1/2” seems tight. Does anyone have part numbers to for the adjustable front forks and rear shock? What else should I look at modding? Is the chain 120 links, if like to get an o-ring chain.
