If you do the measurement the way you're saying, the chain will be WAYYYYY loose compared to the spec when measured in the correct position.

I had never heard of needing a rider to sit on the bike for the measurement but I suppose it could vary from bike to bike depending on the variance in sprocket distance under riding conditions. Although I would assume the idea of measuring the slack while the bike is at rest pre calculated with any fluctuations the bike might experience with a rider while moving.
I do know that I am not out of my mind though.
Maybe the Yamaha technique is the secret to Rossi's many victories?
