Single Side Swingarm / Paddock Stand..

Discussion in 'Detailing and cleaning' started by Paul Nuttall, May 16, 2021.

  1. Does anyone put engine in gear whilst bike is on stand so as to clean / oil chain
     
  2. People have lost fingers doing this.
     
    • Agree Agree x 2
  3. Yes, but I tend to do it during winter when running the bike up just so things move etc rather than oiling/cleaning the chain. I just hand turn the wheel for that. Much safer and for me, I think I can do a better job that way as I can see more.

  4. Nuetral. But i re-usable zip tie the front brake. I also screw a long stud with a large washer into wheel and paddock stand. Liberal clean with paraffin, then grip chain with towel and spin wheel to remove residue a few times.
     
  5. Yeah and their bike fell off.
