    My bike never came with a tool kit which would contain a chain tightening/loosening tool. Does anybody know of where I can get the tool or entire tool kit?
    Thanks

    I saw one of these for sale in the classified section, if not here on VFRD. Also, there's a post here where a member had a template made that can be used to cut your own, if you have the resources or access to them. Other than that, eBay or one of the Honda OEM parts suppliers.

    In the interim, look up a drawing of the way the thing works and use a drift to adjust the chain tension.

    A few taps with a hammer or mallet and your're done. No sledgehammers allowed.
