It helps alot if you put you bike year and model in your sig line so we know which bike you are talking about. If you have an automatic adjuster you don't have to worry about it but if it's manual then you do. I used to check mine twice during the riding season but now that I switched to and automatic I don't worry about it. I just take it off and clean it during the winter down season.
Ride safe.
