the basics
Posted: Thu Apr 11, 2002 5:36 pm
Howdy, I just bought my first motorcycle; 2002 KLR650 of course. As
I get more riding in I can't believe I made it 29 years without a
bike. Problem is, I'm green, green, green when it comes to the
basics of motorcycle maintenance. I live off of a dirt road, so the
thumper gets way dirty way fast. As far as maintaining the chain, do
I need to de-grease it then re-lube it or can I simply apply lube in
a liberal fashon when needed. Feel free to let me know of any other
basic tenants of routine maintenance that I should be able to do on
my own. Thanks-
