Whenever you are servicing your steed, you should check and add dielectric grease to every connection. Believe me, it can decide whether you get across that stream, or make it home in tonight's downpour. Just add it to you list of KLR Do's. Right next to the "Honey Do's" Merry Christmas I apologize if I offend any Muslims, people of the Jewish faith, etc. My custom is American and that Means Merry Christmas.

I'm taking the KLR 650 in on Friday for routine maintenance and don't want to appear as stupid to some mechanic as I do with you guys. After all I actually have to talk to this guy face to face. On this list the responses to my posting of the noise on the left side of the bike developing was defined as possibly a chain tensioner or balancer chain adjustment problem. What's the difference? Thanks, Not too bike smart in Phoenix.
