Ichiban Moto talks drive chains

Ichiban Moto continues his satirical crusade against clueless how-to motorcycle maintenance tutorials with this video on chain maintenance.

Things you’ll need: “Voltage grade” assembly tape, tap water, and a rusty chain. And a hammer, to pound the links loose again. And chain detergent. And a “metal scrubby brush.” The most excellent part of this video is the fact that, judging by YouTube comments, some people actually think this is a way to keep their cafe racer on the road.
