I feel sorry for the guy.
I have caught a sprocket once or twice without the bike running and that can hurt like a *****.

I saw the same thread on Kawiforums a couple years back when someone else did exactly the same thing.
Who dresses these people in the morning?? They're clearly not smart enough to handle that themselves. In all the years i've owned a motorcycle and been cleaning chains, i never once thought it would be a good idea to clean the chain with the bike running and in gear.
I have no sympathy for that ruhtard.
Really?! REALLY?! It should read "I made a choice because I'm stupid...." Certain things you should be able to figure out on your own before they go terribly terribly wrong and blow up in your face.
There is no reason for the engine to be running......its called give the rear wheel a couple of turns. In case you don't know, a band saw can take fingers off as well.
Just another reminder that 90% of the population wouldn't survive an afternoon in a machine shop.

It's more digit-chopped than anything else.

thats not a photoshop...
Same thing I do, I go out for a ride let the chain warm up, put it on a rear stand put it in neutral and turn the wheel by hand. Takes at the max 10 mins to do..
Damn those pics are graphic!

what the heck... it kinda baffles the mind that anyone would do such a thing...
Don't people figure that it seems like a dangerous thing to do?
Its a big piece of high powered machinery with moving parts. eeerr....
Do they not have shop class in high school or elementary anymore? I think it should be mandatory. It taught me how to respect machinery and the dangers of it. Oh yes... and to know what your doing or find out before you fiddle with it.

Why would it ever be a good idea to clean a chain while the bikes on. What a moron. I guess he was watching too much jackass or something.

This is exactly why I stopped cleanin my chain with my penis...
It's a good reason that we try to keep the flaming to a minimum here.
Isn't it better to ask (without fear of flaming) than to try something you aren't sure about on your own?
We were all new at one point.
Nasty pics!!

You don't have to be a pro/genius to know not put your hand into a moving chain.It's a good reason that we try to keep the flaming to a minimum here.

one valuable thing i learned working in a machine shop is that gloves and rags around running machines is a bad idea...either get your finger nicked by a blade or have your entire hand sucked in.
WOW that guy is a dumbass.
I mean, who the hell uses WD-40 to clean the chain anyway?
Yes but new =/= Stupid.It's a good reason that we try to keep the flaming to a minimum here.

Certain things i know are a bad idea without having to ask.
LOLz
On the flip side, i bet he didnt look at the moving chain and say "Hey.. i'd have to be some sorta moron to put my hand in there"
Yes, accidents happen.. but the root cause of labels on chainsaws that read "do not stop blade with hands" is stupidity, not a lack of concentration or lack of foresight.
