D.I.Y Tips on CB400

[Guest axel85]

Hi, i believe everyone have problem in apply lubricant on your chain when you are alone right? Saw a DIY post a few month back, that guy use a piece of long wood and place it at the end can so that he can apply lubricant on the chain. But i couldnt found it in the forum. Does anyone of you have any D.I.Y Tips to share?

i follow the example of my bike shop mechanic... lift up the rear wheel of the bike by holdin up my box rack with my right hand using the side stand as a pivot

then use left hand to spray lubricant on chain. pause, put down chain lub, use left hand to spin rear wheel. spray on next segment of chain. repeat till done... u'll be surprised it reali doesn't require alot of strength to lift the rear of ur bike provided u use ur side stand as a pivot properly...

Hi s4vtec, how long is your ply-wood???

[skateboy]

using a jack is effortless cos u only turn with a screwdriver to lift up the rear. use wood is free but then u need to use strength to lift it up.

 

up to individual.

[LordDevil]

dun put all the weight on the side stand.

[Blahhh]

ur riding spec3? best option is to get mainstand, save u all the trouble

[skateboy]

use padlock stand?

[Hockz]

Just go get a car jack will do!! save time and less strength

[eement]
