If it is real, which I doubt, then ouch

Question: Who buggers around taking photos and shit after they have just done that to their fingers?

Our very own SN4PD (Liam) had a similar moment...

OK - Haven't opened the link.

Heard enough thanks.

I always lube my chain with the engine running.
No problems yet.

I think Albert Einstein's quote pretty much covers this - see my signature.

I came across a guy a coupla years back who munched his fingers in the same fashion... Not as severely luckily.

This seems to be a common occurence.

Still dont understand why anyone would even think they have to have the thing running to clean/lube a chain.

I lube the chain on the CT110 with it in gear. It's just quicker. Wouldn't dream of it on a bigger bike though.

I think we probably need to be clear though. He wasn't just spraying lube on the chain - he was using he hand to hold a rag against/around the chain in order to clean it. I feel sorry for the guy I really do.

I use a ScottOiler.
Much easier and safer.
