Wheelie Removal and Chain Clean
 

Can anyone point me in the direction of a step by step guide to taking off the rear wheel etc...so that I can take the chain off and clean it it a bucket of Parafin?

It's an SV650 K4 Naked with Hugger and Scottoiler.

BTW I am cr@p at Mechanics/DIY so it has to be a Monkeys guide.

Cheers

Unless you plan on breaking the chain and re-riviting it, you can't take the chain off as it's wrapped around the swing arm.

You dont need to remove wheel and chain to clean the chain - a small tub of parafin and a toothbrush will do just fine.

If you've got a Scottoiler fitted, how dirty is the chain ?
I just used to turn up the drip rate from time to time if I wanted to clean my chain :lol:

Thats just plain lazy

<noted for next time ;)>

nice avtar mr toad!! dont listen Wheelie_sv650 take the wheel out and polish the hell out of the inside of that swingarm :oops: <sorry i'm a sv cleenaholic! :oops:

I would do but I dont know how..

I really would like to take the wheel off so that I know how to do it....

No harm in learning.

Haynes manual is your friend :wink:

I thought Haynes manual only went up to a curvy...I have a K4 and so they dont make one for my model (although I'm sure a lot is the same..But not all).

Just a thought
