you don’t have to fill silences with words. It’s okay. Just add words when you really need to. I love the addition of your family’s dinner announcement. (melted my heart)

[@larrypeplinski593]

Call me dense, but this maybe the 4th time to watch this. I'm glad that you're just as friendly each time.

[@timothyjohnson839]

Jesus this video was satisfying to watch. Nothing beats a clean chain lol

[@user-uk3ky6qc2n]

Just picked up an 890 after riding belt drives for the last 20 years. I'd watch a whole maintenance series with you! Nicely done and thanks!

[@VanderBori]

"overtight rear axel nuts" tip is very usefull. Thanks man.

[@mustang281100]

Thanks For the Tip I just bought the Motion Pro Chain Tool. You have the Best Honda Africa Twin Videos.

[@drdebrillos8909]

Thanks man

[@RaptorPackAdventures]

Thank you for the clear instructions. I’m a brand new owner of a KLR 650 and have no knowledge of maintenance and cleaning the bike. Best video I’ve seen yet. Now I have to put the center stand back on and find a table. Lol 😆

[@micksimbad3745]

Thank you for this video, it helped answer all my questions, turns out my chain is super loose and now I know I don't need to take it to a shop because tightening is easy! Thanks again, you got yourself a new subscriber

[@patrickcooper9641]

Hello there Kyle, great detailed video on chain maintenance. This is pretty much how I did it back in my days. I started with a 500 XT. No chains in the last 20 years but this might change extremely soon when I get my 700 Tenere! Cheers

[@nickgrant2249]

Thank you BAM. Really good information. Will be doing this tomorrow. All the best from England.

[@shugyoforyou211]

I love the unscripted message from "your sponsor" 😂👍

[@dabike]

Best guidance on chain maintenance I have ever seen!

[@michaelneijenhoff7201]

Watched this video and Chanel for the first time.

[@chiliboom6140]

Thank you for the video, friend! Very informative with easy to follow instructions. Cheers!

[@hardworkingamerican8847]

Cool info . Agree with you on the wax . I have a bunch of small bottles of it that I found in a storage unit and have been using it for 5 years now , not on my motorcycle but my mountain bike and 2000w lithium 60v scooter that I have my dog chase me on . We have a small park that I can take her running on and that chain gets real dirty real quick . Usually don't fuss too much about it but that attitude is different with maintaining my motorcycle .

[@AllThingsCloudie]

Great video, thanks for the clarification on types of chains.

[@cottageadvlife]

This is a really detailed, step by step video. This is a good video to keep as reference.

[@larrypeplinski593]

Thanks Kyle. I will check out the tools too.

[@ayman-8455]

Thank you for the details, very useful clip. Thank you very much
