Cam Chain Adjustment

Cam Chain Adjustment 
Dennis Breedlove said 2009-06-18 21:02 
 
I recently bought an 1100 Shadow and I have a loud clatter under the rear valve cover on the right side. The clatter is only there in the morning when I first start the bike. It goes away and the bike runs fine. I was hoping it was an out of adjustment cam chain, but I can´t find any adjustment instructions in the book. Can you adjust this chain, or is it self adjusting. I really don´t want to remove this engine. I´m also looking for a good website fore accessaries. highway bars saddlebags, a trunk. etc...

Thanks
