Oiling a chain when all you have is a side stand…
Oiling a chain when all you have is a side stand…
My Triumph doesn’t have a centre stand so, whenever I’ve oiled the chain, I’ve pushed it along the street a couple of feet at a time. This works as long as I have room to do this and the ground is flat, but I do get oil on the wheel.
Unfortunately, where I’m living now isn’t flat, nor do I have room.
I don’t really want to get a paddock stand, so is there something on the market that allows the rear wheel to spin freely? I think I remember something with largish ball bearings that went under the wheel, but I can’t remember what it was called or who stocked it.
Cheers
