the chain real<br />

quick …<br />

Motorcycle chains tend to be lubricated “real<br />

quick” just before a ride – often leaving too little<br />

time for the chain lubricant to penetrate and air<br />

dry so it will adhere properly. Ideally the chain<br />

should be lubricated after use. Before winter or<br />

after intensive use, it is also best to clean the<br />

chain before lubricating it. Here's how:<br />

1. Cleaning: Good chain care starts with proper cleaning. For that, clean<br />

your chain with CHAIN CLEAN DEGREASER SPRAY after the ride. It's best to<br />

wrap the chain in an absorbent cotton rag, then point the chain cleaner's<br />

powerful stream down onto it from above. Remove residue from the chain<br />

bit by bit in the direction of rotation.<br />

2. Inspection: Once the chain is clean, visually inspect it and lift it from<br />

the sprocket to check for excess play (wear).<br />

every chain. By lubricating and reducing friction, it protects against wear<br />

and corrosion. After cleaning, spray CHAINLUBE onto an unobstructed<br />

portion of the chain (not onto the sprocket). Apply amply to the entire<br />

width of the chain between the outer and inner bushings. Allow chain spray<br />

to penetrate. Wipe off excess chain spray with a soft cotton cloth.<br />

For safety:<br />

good visibility<br />

Windshield and wipers are exposed to wind and weather liter-<br />

4 5<br />

ally 365 days a year. UV radiation, acid rain with pH values<br />

between 4.2 and 4.8, and mechanical factors such as grit<br />

particles can cause the sensitive rubber lips of wiper blades<br />

to become brittle over time. In winter, a mix of salt, snow, and<br />

ice can make things still worse. Unnoticed clogging of the<br />

delicate lip structure on the wiper blade may leave it unable<br />

to flex sufficiently in both directions. The result: dangerous<br />

smearing and poor visibility.<br />

TIP Clean wiper blades manually with a clean, soft cotton<br />

rag, ideally soaked in wiper fluid concentrate. <strong>MOTOREX</strong> WIPE<br />

& CLEAN wiper fluids are ready to use in every season and are<br />

available as concentrates. They are gentle on materials, readily<br />

biodegradable, and highly economical. Successfully tested for<br />

fan nozzles as well as polycarbonate headlight covers.<br />
