    Chain slap!

    I put the bike on the center stand and checked the counter sprocket and chain slack. The sprocket is not worn and the chain slack appears to be okay. However when I start it up and put it in 1 gear up to about 3k and let off the chain is bouncing up and down a lot. I hold the throttle at 3k and kneel down by the back wheel and I can hear and see the chain slap the bottom of the frame as I let off the throttle. I guess I need to tighten up the chain a little and see if that solves it.
