Group:
I've been in the bicycle industry for 16 years. My experience with
the Finish Line product is to keep it on bicyles. It is too light a
lube for motorcycle applications. Also, WD stands for Water
Dissipant. The 40 refers to the 40th iteration at formulation. It's
a great rust inhibitor. It sounds like it may have other attributes
as well but I've had countless lube reps tell me it does not have much
lubricating properties. Maybe thats a way for them to sell their
products instead...

nklr wd-40 as chain lube
But.... it cleans the yuckies off the chain (that stuff that grinds
away at the metal making the chain get all loose) and leaves a small
film to keep it from rusting, but not enough to make more yuckies
stick to the chain.
And that boys and girls is very important to somebody that rides a
dual sport with knobbies in places I bet some of yours bikes will
never ever see ever.

Ok, I marketed the Song Dog replacement in Kernville in April to heavily,
but the higher elevations will be a bit more accessible in late April,
rahter than in March, when Baja riding does call.
My appologies, also, for referencing the late April date for the
Isabella/Kernville/ Southern Sierra area, during a full moon, in late April,
per the web link I posted. It is going to be so freaking good! -
I should have remained on point about your March idea for the same area,
rather than bring up the upcoming Baja ride in later March (also full moon
period - ya--- beaches, fish tacos, and sunset stuff) and redirecting
persons to the April ride per my link, rather than just say, excellent
choice of a riding area, but I have commitments elsewhere in March.
I am to be flogged, but only by my wife, in about 15 minutes. Good night,
all of ya KLR riders.

Hey Jim - Lake Isabella. CA etal is a great idea, except, I expect to be in
Baja Mexico in later March 2005. Postings are eminent on this list and
advrider.com.
Oh, a BUNCH of us are riding in to Kernville, Ca in the later period of
April (ya know how close it is to Lake Isabella) in later April.
A great season of ride-in events is being offered to us all. (thumbs up).
The areas around Lake Isabella are one of the prime reasons for April ride
near Kernville - aka WARPED trip 2005.

Mike the Lake Isabella tour in is on my list also but that is not until late
April. Why not get together at Joshua Tree in early to mid March for a
long weekend? Sure looks like some great 4WD roads in the monument for
licensed vehicles of the KLR persuasion. I've been there one time and found
the geography simply surreal. Riding/camping through there on a KLR would
be a very good time I imagine. Anyone wanna ride in JT? See you in DV.
