Centre stand/paddock stand & manually moving the wheel while engine off = what everyone does, I assume ...

A "mate" of mine did the same thing once, not lubing but cleaning the chain. His thumb doesn't bend the way it used to any more...

Got to be honest;
I use scott oil but not the auto oiler, just the oil.
I set the bike up on either the centre stand or the paddock stand with her in gear ticking over and dribble/drip oil on the chain through a plastic tube and no where near the sprocket!
I resist the temptation to put my fingers anywhere near the chain.......what was this guy thinking?

Tomorrow's thread title: "Blood better lube than Oil?!"Well it is thicker then water :laugh:
I prefer the 'walk bike forward while mate crawls behind spray lubing chain' method. Always looks sus.
