Well explained Nigel. But why do Honda have problems with tensioning the blade of the tensioner? As you state in your reply, the chain isn't tensioned as such but I guess the 'wear' is taken up by the tensioner blade changing the radius. I get that bit but why do Honda keep changing the design, the tensioner on the 400/4 is a bit pathetic in design, the horseshoe pivot wears, the tensioner plunger sticks in the tunnel and the adjusting bolt is so thin it will snap at the first oppotunity (although to be fair, by a ham fisted owner). Cam chain tensioners do appear to be a problem area for Honda, that's why my everyday bike is a cam gear VFR
That used to happen to the filters on any oil Ash, worse on the G5 as you had to remove the whole clutch case to clean it out
