I have a lot of road gunk, oil, chain lube coming out of the front sprocket. Is there an easy way to clean that out without taking a bunch of parts off to get in there. Cause a glop of that "stuff" was on the garage floor and i slipped and almost dropped the bike pissed.gif . I used wd40 to clean the chain off every 1000 mi (or when ever i get bored). and it starts to drip black shi...stuff all over the little piece of fairing by the side stand. some quick tips would be greatly appreciated beer.gif

Not really. It's only like four bolts than you need to undo and that whole side cover comes off. You can then get in there with a old toothbrush and a can of wd-40. fing02.gif
