Motorcycle Chain After 400KM 😲 - Chain Cleaning - WD-40
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
Motorcycle chain maintenance is often overlooked in India; sometimes even official motorcycle service centres skip carrying out this major maintenance procedure correctly.
I like to clean the chain with WD40 and remove most of the dirt. Then let it sit for a few hours or a day, before I lube the chain.

Only use WD-40 to clean, like you said it evaporates and therefore we need chain lube that will stay on(don’t forget to let it set before driving or chain lube will fling off too)

Do not use WD40 to clean your chain, it penetrates the seal rings and compromises the internal manufacturers grease, there is a whole video on youtube a out it. I only use iPone Chain Cleaner as it produces the best effects, and to lube your chain use thick gear oil only. Do not waste your money on brand chain lubes that do not work!
That’s the cutest can of wd40 I’ve ever seen

Never use WD-40 to clean or lube the chain. To clean use kerosene or a product specifically for O-ring chains. Use motorcycle chain lube to lube.

I understand the body parts situation. But keeping it clear of the sprocket helps.
Do not under any circumstances use wd40 as a chain lube, because it acts as degreaser, it won't evaporate, and won't allow chain lube to sit on chain, ultimately damaging the chain

@@krishnachaithanyareddy8575 There is no science to back it up! The biggest enemy of O ring chains is rust. The lube is safely enclosed in the ring area. Chain cleaners and lube only help the chain stay away from rust and clean any dirt that might be on it.

@@butimjeremy the fact that you are saying there is no scientific evidence shows how ignorant you are, if you want to do it then do it, but don't suggest it to other people. Here is the scientific evidence - WD40 IS a degreaser, meaning it removes any grease or lube on the surface it is applied to, and the main aim of lube is to reduce friction between moving metal objects, WD40 is not a lube, so it doesn't help in reducing friction and further it doesn't let any lube on the surface making it vulnerable.
