Bike cleaning and stands....

  1. Wot he said!
    I had an RS with bellypan and centre stand, no problems. The Triumph
    stand does cost a few notes but you might get one on ebay or
    somewhere. I'm fairly sure the RS/ST stands are one and the same
    product.

    It *looks* scary, but he assures me he's not lost one yet.

    Of course you could get yourself a chain oiler as well, then you just
    need to get the cleaning sussed.

    I'll have to try this next time, just call me a newbie.
    Mmmm, I recollect a wonderful page on the 'net with a guy missing the tops
    of his fingers thanks to a similar technique of oiling. What fun :)

    known on the twisties on my B12...

    I don't know where Flitwick is, so I'm probably not near it :) But
    appreciate the offer.

    I like the latter approach, but I can't be arsed to lube the chain as often
    as I should in the first place, so don't think it would work for me....

    I ignore its presence until it clanks as I get air over the speed
    humps past my office...

    Visions of Kermit blasting around the lanes and cleaning his bike pass
    through my tortured mind.

    That's no good to me though is it?

    If you've got one going spare and it works with all the bits, I'll have
    it.
