Almost motorcycle chains rarely get care from their owners, whether the condition has been stretched or done lubrication. Except if it is causing friction sound to the ear, then brought to the workshop. The second aspect is very important to maintain a longer service life. More importantly to prevent the occurrence of loose or broken chain.
Maintenance is very easy and can be done alone. Following the instructions
"There are some motors that has its own lubrication and there should always be in check," . According to him, checks remain to be done to prevent the sprocket (gear) fast taper. For some motorcycles if it is less likely to spend lubricant because of noise when the road.
To lubricate the chain, previously clean sand or fine dust using a special cleaning fluid. After that, lubricate, can use a special fluid or engine oil is obtained in the motor accessories store. The way is easy, parking is standard motor with the center, tires rotated and drops (oil) or spray (liquid) on the gear.
Flexibility
Chain should not be too tight can cause breaking up, let alone tilted position could erode the eye gear. Instead, slack chain will easily separated from the sprocket. Unfortunately, when released, then the chain swing arm pinned. As a result, rotation of the wheel was stopped, the motorcycle slip.
Chain flexibility ideal distance is about 1 cm. How to check, look for the most tense position at the top of the chain, then play the bottom of the lift. Loosen the bolts enough to adapt and adjust the position of the rear axle via a sign that there is flexibility on both sides. Make sure the distance is the same, then tighten the bolt shaft earlier.
Behavior
There are two things that can make the chain more quickly. First, do not often do brake suddenly because it can make a quick slack. Secondly, when it did pick up speed smoothly not surprised because the chain tension. If it is too often can be broken.
