What it this chain you speak about ?
I’ll deviously add to this (it’s a Tuesday, and I’m pissed it’s not Thursday):RyanF9 says gear oil is the most economically efficient:https://youtu.be/VnPYdcbcAe0?si=6TB6y7cMLmRebQqv
Oil on the rear tyre…What could possibly go wrong ?
25 years later, I'm here to talk about it.Last step is to wipe the excess with an oily shop rag.My wheel and tire were clean and dry.Funny, the shaft drive bubble we're in, here at WG. Millions of chain drive motorcycles around the world survive every day with little or no chain maintenance, or a light oiling and wipe down with a rag...Hundreds Tens, or possibly thousands into the teens of leaky old shaft drive Moto Guzzis run the roads with gear oil splattered everywhere...
Fixed Your post reads with a certain filter eluding chains never fail whereas drives shafts are almost certain failure. AS for leaking sure rear drives leak oil in some instances so do engine cases and transmissions, forks or anything else that has fluid in it that can leak out. In any event there is no clear winner chain drive verse's shaft drive. They both have their positives and negatives. The good thing is we have the choice and can pick either, both or none.
Part of the beauty of a bike with a chain is the ease of clutch repair when needed. Like my tagline says.
I think that only apply to BMWs and Guzzis, and possibly the Gold Wing? The clutch on my Japanese bikes with shaft final drive, including the CX, have been no harder than chain driven bikes.
this stuff is working great for me 👍
