Can't remember if I got the idea from anywhere else. Was trying to get a heavier oil to stop fling but Kwak would tell you it hasn't worked.
I was hoping I wasn't using -

i do ride the bike you know its just that i spend hours and hours and hours cleaning the thing and i do clean the links of the chain but you carnt tell must get a gold chain they look cool.

There is going to be one happy buyer Kwak, whenever you decide to trade up!
