Chain Cleaning & Lubrication questions
The things riders ask us most often about this service.
More often if you ride in rain, dust or on unpaved roads. Many riders clean and lubricate every few hundred kilometres.
Most scooters use a belt or a fully enclosed drive, so this service does not apply. We check the drive system as part of a general service instead.
