Eyeball off the rear sprocket. I'm happy with the 17,000 I got out of the stock chain- I don't need to go for double or triple that.

I'm not anal about it, but I know a few who are. For me, it's been all good so far.

Same here. I've had the rear tire off of both bikes and now have the front tire off of the R6 to replace the tire tomorrow. I just eyeball it and use the guide lines that came on the bike and never seem to have any issues.

I keep the chain clean and lubricated as well.

QFT?

I have no idea how many times I turn the screw. I haven't changed the tire since last year. I have my husband to help me so I don't pay attention to it. That is his job!

I don't have to worry about this shit, i hear the 12k service takes less than a hour to swap all fluids and check the valves.
