Slack should be 25-35mm at the center point.
TL/DR put bike on centerstand to check chain slack.
Checked my manual and it says the same. However, all bikes I've had have tight spots, also the RS from new. Thus I find it to be good practice to check several times, rotating the wheel slightly between each measurement. Otherwise, if you aim for the minimum slack (as I do) you risk an overly tight chain.
