Poor guy, he's all thumbs.

One of the girls on CF did that. Her thumb has a nice big chunk taken out of it.

She rides a gsxr too.

She's probably in that thread somewhere, but it's blocked so I can't see.

Ouch.

Ha I've done that a thousand times in the past. Now I just use a grunge brush and rotate the wheel by hand. Doing it using engine power just makes a bigger mess IMHO. As far as losing fingers, well if you put the rag on the sprocket or on the chain as it LEAVES the sprocket...:lol:

To be honest, the best way to do this is with a grunge brush.
and chain cleaner. I bet this guy changes v belts on a car while it's running.:lol:

Um... that was Megan :wink:

She's also a mod over on Gixxer.com

**pics are finally back up**

:facepalm: :ws:

Dude's got some humility, I'll give him that. Can't see any of the pictures here (China blocks everything, :lol:) but I'll check it out when I get home. I bet as soon as the rag caught on the chain, he knew what was about to happen but didn't have time to react.:tremble:

I know. But there are only about 5 people here that know who she is, that;s why I didn't bother explaining.
