    I use these wipes they're really good and they sell them at Motorcycle Magacity in Swindon.

    I use water soluble de-greaser. Cut through it fine!

    With modern day power outputs, a shaft is the only way forward ;D ;D

    And you won't end up with crap on your rim ;D

    WD40 to loosen it up and SDoc100 gel to clean it all off would be my way to go......if I had that problem of course

    WD 40 or GT 85 - both work well.

    Even BMW have seen the light as their 800cc range use belt final drive.

    I wish my bike had a belt instead of a chain. No need for maintenance and if it goes wrong you just get another.
    Must be the best option out there
