First Chain Maintenance

Did my first chain maintenance today, since installing the scottsoiler two months (3500 miles) ago. Took a whopping 6 minutes to check the tension, wipe the chain and wheel, and top off the unit.

Much better than last time.

Time to ride!

I think I want one of those. How's the rear wheel look? Any throw off?

You gotta love how easy chain adjustments are on the Tard. Sure beats screwing around with the slash marks on a Japanese bike.
