Maintenance: Chain Lube for Suzuki V-Strom

This is my first attempt at doing a Video Blog, Vlog for short. Dave, my Correspondent in Turkey (<-- link) has been pestering me to consider doing one ever since he posted his first Vlog. It's one thing to be shielded behind a camera rather than being in front of it. Then there's the problem of having enough content to keep interest.

I am glad I had an OEM Suzuki centre stand installed when I purchased the Wee as it makes this operation much easier. The only problem is with the weight of the bike, which is top heavy. I normally clean and lube my chain around every 1,000. kms when I get home after a ride and let the lube soak into the chain overnight. This quick procedure was done only as a subject for my Vlog video to let me get comfortable with talking into the Videocam.
