Motorcycle chain is one of the major components that must be considered and must be kept clean of sand , dust and water in order to function properly . Because through this chain channeled the engine power to the wheels .So durable chain also need lubrication . Use the special chain lubricant spray sold in stores accessories and service stations . But before giving the lubricant on the chain , you should check the condition of the chain .
Before cleaning the bike chain chain type your note . On certain motorcycles like the Honda NSR , has closed lubrication system . Chain model has been equipped with a special fat between the cushions . So that fat does not go to fast runs , each chain there is a rubber seal .For this model the chain is not recommended to be cleaned using kerosene as it will damage the rubber - rubber seal there . Using water and soap cream helped with an old toothbrush would be much better .
But do not let the chain wet too long . Immediately dry it using a cloth and spray chain lubricant evenly enough . This is to prevent corrosion due to chemicals in soaps creams are ' sharp ' .For conventional types of motorcycle chains can be cleaned with kerosene and a toothbrush . Perform cleaning up across parts into crevices chain . Do not forget to clean the surface also front and rear gear in perfect order .
After that do not forget to taste the liquid lubricant spray to the entire surface of the chain . Chain is clean , in addition to unsightly , and not noisy , also makes it more durable chain .
It is not recommended to use fat because fat is sticky nature makes sand and dust easily attached and abrasive which makes the life of the chain and gear becomes shorter .In addition to pay attention to hygiene chain , check and adjust the chain tension so that the chain does not give effect stomping and deceleration when the motor accelerates .Chain slack will also create noise that interfere with driving .
