    It's a public service, a bit like the Health Insafety pictures with the
    metal filings lodged in eyeballs.

    Well he is left handed. You know how it goes, 15 minutes for an
    ambulance, light a ciggy, take a few pictures, watch the blood drip...

    Years ago I used to grab a handful of grease and grasp the chain as it went
    round with the engine idling in gear, but I lost my nerve and stopped doing
    that before I lost my fingers.

    I know a chap who was cleaning the wheel rim with a rag (this was a
    70s kwack, back when bikes had shiny wheels), with the engine ticking
    over in first. The chain caught the rag, and he lost his index
    finger.

    The CBX550 has one, the CB200 (when it works) gets the wheel pushed round by
    hand and grease smeared on the chain.
