Today I was taking the Honda 250R out for a spin, my month old baby.
While I haven't driven it much, when it goes, it feels like there is sand in the gears or something because it makes noise. I am sure it is the chain getting full of sand out here in the dunes.
Basically I was riding it and my chain seized up by the big gear and nearly threw me off. I tried to clean the chain with some engine degreaser, but the stuff on it won't budge. I'm sorry, but none of the oil and grease on the chain and around the engine move, they have been baked by the heat and now nowthing will come off.
So what do you guys use to clean your chains? Thanks.
