        Applied yamaha Chain lube today. Didnt have center stand or paddock stand so I first tried lifting the bike using car's jack(placed it at the base of the frame) but the bike was not balancing and I was alone and there was no one to hold the bike. So I got another Jack and placed both the jacks below the footpegs and then lifted the bike. I have ordered a paddock stand and will be here in a few days so it will be easy in future.

        I first cleaned the chain with Motul Chain Clean, tooth brush and a cloth. Broke the toothbrush(went into the sprockets twice) and ruined the cloth. After a lot of struggles I managed to remove that cra**y Motul Chain Lube and then applied the Yamaha Chain Lube.

        It is white in colour and looking cool and goes well with my White Rim stripes. The white colour can be because I might have over applied the chain lube. Looks cool though.
        Its simple really from what I personally observed at ss and do on my own.
        Get it on stand.
        Put ON the bike and shift in 1st gear
        the chain starts rolling
        take a small piece of cloth.Bundle it tight in small ball.Hold at only 1 point.Chain gets auto clean of previous dirt.
        Than use the cleaner spray on top side and bottom side again at single point,continuos spray.
        same with lubricant.
        gets done in 15 mins
        Using motul for both cleaning & lubricating ...no issues whatsover.

            • Hid

              Hi guys,

              Checked for a pair of HID in Chandigarh. There are two companies-Glitz and P1 HID, for 6k and 6.5k. Both are having 1 year warrenty and temp 6000 k.
              How is the vision in high beam, as my main aim for installing these HID is for high beam on the highways and are they VFM?
              One of the awesome feelings I had in my life is to see the world receding on my back mirror

              • ^^ 6000K temp HIDs are usless (except if you are installing them for show)
                best temp for HID is 4300K ...

                • Hi!
                  A modest attempt.
                  And God said, "Let there be light" and there was HID Kit. And God saw that the light was good;

                      4300K is yellow. 6000K is white with a slight hint of blue. The illumination and beam spread is good. Exceed 6000K and it becomes worthless. Am using 6000K on my bike now.

                        white light gets washed in the light of incoming vehicles that is why slightly yellow light is required on highways...

                          True. But try finding a 4300K and I am ready to buy!! In my search I came across vendors trying to sell me 8000K, 20000K etc saying higher the K, better the light. So 6000K is pretty much what u get all over unless ur planning to get it from abroad.
