    I really don't see how you could have had the clutch adjusted properly without the chain , because without it you really have no way to feel where it is grabbing. so just put the chain on and adjust as needed not a hard thing to do.you are all practiced up.

      The clutch adjustment won't be affected, but since it takes all of 1 minute to adjust, why worry?
