Well I reckon it's a job well done :bow: :bow: :bow:



Tip for goo in the chainguard/hugger ... sort out some old newspapers and a bit of wooden stick (supply of old lolly sticks are ideal!!).

Use the lolly sticks to scrape out as much of the goo as possible onto the papers and then use something like gunk/jizer etc to soak in and wash out what's left.

Messy job but well worth the effort!!

Tip for degreasing, buy a nice machine mart 75litre parts washer..........luvly. Red as well so it matches my toolchest and my eyes.


Funny, I started servicing the bird yesterday, oil changed, filter done, front brakes stripped and cleaned. Chain sparkling.....turns out it's actually gold not black after all!!!

Rear end to do now (bike not mine which is always clean)!
