2015 Honda CBR600RR - chain slack ?

^^This^^ ultimately, swingarm interference is the limiting factor. Not saying 3" is good even if it doesn't interfere, but the point is being made that looser is the way to go.
 
That's a nice tool, glad you like it. Definitely works for its singular purpose. I took a tape measure, measured slack from resting to pulled upward, but didn't measure to the swingarm which seems silly as it's pretty obvious if it's an issue being too loose. I don't know a manufacturer that gives a specific measurement to the swingarm, but could be wrong. Used the same tape measure the next day for a project around the house. Motion pro has great tools, but a lot of them are a tool in search of a need, IMO.
I've used a tape measure too. This is so much easier. They do have quite a few gimmick tools, I' all for making chain maint. easier and this does that. I'd rather be a little loose than too tight.
