Wait until that oil gums up and eats the casing.As soon as you picked it back up, It all ran right to the bottom. JMO

Then the gum is going to run out and get on your tires and you are going to go into an uncontrollable slide and you will have to pick it up again lol

You should try it sometime, even 110 pound people can do it. It's no big deal.

After using the oil my clutch has never been easier and smoother to pull. You can keep your dri-slide. I would have had more fun riding down the road and throwing dollars until I got to the 20+ that I paid for that garbage.

Yes I shook the bottle. I shook it until my arm got numb the second time I used it thinking I didn't shake it enough. Extra oil from servicing the bike. No cost and no shaking.

Roadking, I wouldn't worry too much about the feedback you're getting. There are a lot of BYM's on here that I'm sure wouldn't know the correct way of picking up their bike. Whatever works for you dude.

Op. please tell me you did not pour used oil down your clutch cable? Because that is the way that I am understanding this? Maybe I am wrong?

I always lay my bike down each night, gently lay the cover over it and pull it right up to the headlight visor, carefully remove the bugs from her headlight lens, then with a caressing touch softly and lovingly rub her ( no not there ) under the fairing and wish her a peaceful nights sleep, but ... that's just me !!
