meanie

I am a born again, bought a 2002 FZS 600 done 34000 great fun for the summer but ready for an fz1 now. Anyway I have been using a silicone based dry lube and was pleased with it because no flick, however I now seem to have developed a tight spot on the chain. I do not know what miles the chain has done, but there is bags of adjustment left and the sprockets seem in good shape, my first thought was to replace. Do you think it is worth first trying to clean well, and then try running it with wet lube? Am I risking doing any further damage to bearings? And secondly what are your feelings on silicone based dry lubes as opposed to wet lubes? As ever you opinions would be appreciated.

Can anyone tell me how to go about finding a course on basic motor bike maintenanse I live in Winchester Hants

Hi there, I cant help at all with your question but would like to know more about the course you are doing. I live in Winchester and have been thinking about doing something similar but have not found a course yet.

Thanks for your reply, no it is just when reducing the revs after any period of say five minutes or more. It is not by any means violent, and soon disapears. The bike is still under waranty, so I have the option of asking the shop to take a look, I just wanted to know if this was usual.
