FAQ |
Will it fit
my bike?
The Chaindrain Kit is designed to universally fit all full size left hand
chain drive motorcycles. You may need to custom fit it to you bike by doing
minor trimming to the drain channel, or adjusting the length of the flex
tube. |
| |
What type
of cleaning fluids can I use to clean my chain?
We find that our bean clean works exceptionally, but you can use any type of
cleaning fluid that is recommended for O-ring chains. Some examples that are
compatible with the drain pan are kerosene and WD40. Do not use gasoline,
contact cleaner, brake cleaner, or any other highly volatile solvent. |
| |
How much
fluid does it hold?
The drain pan is capable of holding more fluid than can is practically
necessary to clean your drive chain. The Chaindrain is not intended to store
flammable or combustible fluids. The captured fluids need to be drained off
into an approved storage container after each cleaning! |

Your brush
looks like a toothbrush. How come you don't offer a fancy looking brush with
multiple heads of bristles?
Ostensibly, a brush with multiple heads seems like it could clean multiple
surfaces at a time and complete the job quicker. It may be quick at
superficially cleaning the chain, but will not be able to do a thorough job.
Its bristles are too stiff to reach into all the nooks between the plates.
Whether you feel that you have completed the job or not depends on your
standard for cleanliness. Our brush will allow you to clean all parts of you
chain, not just the outside portions. |
| |
Will it work
without a support stand?
Chaindrain will work with the centerstand on your motorcycle, if equipped
with one. It can be positioned on a motorcycle being supported by a
kickstand, but advancing the chain would be a awkward. We recommend using
support stands. |
| |
You
advertise your BEAN CLEAN as all natural. How can it possibly be effective
at cutting through caked on grease and crud?
Its extremely effective at melting away crud. BEAN CLEAN cuts through the
crud quicker than kerosene and does not emit a noxious petroleum smell. The
aerosol can sprays a strong jet which allows you to blast away all the
debris that has been scrubbed loose. |

|
Will it work with my
particular support stand? |
|
The chain drain base/tank is
3.25 in thick and 3 in high. It was designed to be slender enough
to use with the variety of stands being offered. To verify that you will
not have a problem, measure the distance between the sidewall of your
tire and the support stand (chain side). If this distance measures 3.375
in, or greater, you should have no problem with getting the CHAIN DRAIN
to fit your application. |
