Default Chain adjuster seized.

The chain adjusters on the CBR screw into the swingarm. One of them is seized! What can I do to move it?

Brute force and ignorance?

The retard in my head is saying something about heat but I tend not to take her too seriously...

That'll be the Honda build quality that everyone bangs on about

WD40 i'd guess to, then wait a while and try again..

why are people suggesting WD40?. Personally I would use a penetrating oil.

Wd 40 is very lightweight, and it evaporates quickly. Useful in some circumstances, but something like 3 in 1 will stay "wet" for longer and can be left for a while to do it's work.
