I tried doing Deco-mainte yesterday★
On my own bike the estimate was about 3 hours, but it wasn’t that straightforward.
We’re in a crisis where we need to boost efficiency or we’re done for★
Well, that’s our own problem anyway.
Control system maintenance★ Taking things apart and greasing them—honestly, I don’t even do that on my own bike, and it’s a pain, right?
You can just spray lubricant on it from the outside and get by for the moment.
But it flies off right away, doesn’t it? Lubricant, I mean…
Take it apart, clean it thoroughly, wipe it dry, check the moving parts for wear, apply fresh grease, and reassemble.
That feels great.
Levers, pedals, throttle, and even the side stand—they all go “whoosh whoosh” smoothly♪
Delicious.
