How NOT to clean a chain (GRAPHIC)
Saw this on Gixxer.com. Definitely a dumb avoidable mistake but one that anyone could make. Warning pics are gross.
http://www.gixxer.com/forums/showthread.php?t=242261 Shit just realized Racer X posted this as well. |

I think the first reponse was rather appropriate

Yes I am aware. I can't delete the thread however.

That's a painful lesson.

How NOT to clean a chain -> GRAPHIC

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: |

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 remember when that happened. Dano felt so bad because he was the one that showed her that method. It all just happened so fast - and all the wonderful people that have the "you're a dumbass" comments. *phew* Like, losing part of your hand ever makes you feel like it was an intelligent move?? |
I love how instead of freaking out and going directly to the hospital, he grabs his camera and starts taking pictures of the carnage.
|
Wow...And to think I thought I saw it all...
|
If you are gonna be stupid, you better be tough.

we had a local kid do that here about 2 years ago. i think he only lost one finger.
but what i dont get is who cleans their chain from the bottom? if he was cleaning it at the top or near the rear sprocket he would have no problem... anyway engine on is retarded - just put it on a rear stand and spin the wheel. |

How often do you get to post shit like that? Once, maybe twice in a lifetime? JC |
