i think most people can afford 30 bucks for a torque wrench. This should really be stressed.

Thanks for the video: a great help!
-
going to do this today, thanks so much! very helpful!
-
Should you tighten the chain so there is absolutely no slack ?? I'm new to riding so I don't know too much
-
when cleaning the inside of the chain you are turning the rear wheel in an incorrect manner! That's an easy way to lose a finger! You show the correct way to do it when you lubed the chain, at the end.
Always turn the wheel clockwise when you're cleaning the bottom part of the chain.
I usually hang a rag to block any over spray from getting on my tire

@TheAmazingTTOCS lol u can buy cotter pin sets at advanced auto parts for 2 bucks
-
I was told not to lube the chain until after it's warmed up. True?
-
@TheAmazingTTOCS You can get a new one from most any automobile parts store for about 15 cents each.

That's a good how to, appreciate it, but regarding the statement "You can't get it too tight" I have to call BS, sorry.
You should read up on it before making such a claim, you definitely CAN get it too tight. A torque wrench makes a lot of sense, not just for the axle nuts.
-
where did you get the new cotter pin? from the dealership? if so did they charge you, or just give it to you?
-
Well Done NewNja! Very detailed and helpful.
May I ask why you havent made more? Your muffler info was awesome.

you forgot torque wrench to make sure you torque up the rear axle nut properly to negate the risk of the rear axle coming loose! also the manual/service manual to get correct torque wrench settings.

To do this "per the book" you would need to torque the axle nut to spec...but in the real world most people don't have a tq wrench. You cant get it too tight, and if you're dumb enough to leave it loose you probably shouldnt be on a motorcycle. It also has a cotter pin in it to stop it from backing off if too loose...
