Haven't posted in a long time, but have been fun reading through
WD40 praises and rants, so figured I'd add something a little
different.
When I'm not on 2 wheels, my other mode of exploration is done by
atv. And for a certain group of us, our favorite areas to explore
are the nastiest, muddiest, gumbo-ridden places we can find. Swamps
and beaver ponds are great fun. Think of 4 mile trip that takes 10
hours to make - good fun. So as much as we like burying the 4
wheelers up to the handlebars in goop, we also take pride in who
shows up with the cleanest machine (part of the fun, I guess). We
all found years ago that after a good bath, it helps to slather the
entire undercarraige with WD40. It does a couple of things.
1. It makes everything look black, shiny (clean) and new
2. It prolongs the life of certain things (cv joint boots, spring
rubbers, etc)
3. It displaces the water after a good bath
4. It makes it slightly easier to clean the after the next trip
Just thought I'd throw it out there as it might be an idea to try on
you KLR next time you venture off into some great mud bog (I know,
no one does that here, right Rev?)
Ride safe and have fun!
Jon

Jeez, Dave! PROPER spelling would be: TIRE TREAD, or is it TIRED
THREAD, or could it be
TRY TO READ...?
