What would you like me to do MJH? You do not communicate well, to my comprehension anyway but thanks for responding.
Some things you could suggest are harmful or difficult, so please keep it relevant to the posts? I would prefer some public (or private, your choice) resolution rather than just deletion.
What's a)kerosine and b)mineral spirits also known as paint thinner(commercial name) in Chinese?
Not really a motorcycle part, but still related somewhat. Clean your chain! But since the accident I'm not riding as much, just on the bicycle nowadays. Always two wheels of course!
I need to clean the chain on my bicycle, and paint thinner seems to be better than WD40 for the job. Also kerosine seems to be another choice for the job.
kerosene 煤油 | paint thinner 天拿水/ 香蕉水 | Diesel 柴油 are also very good for chain cleaning.Quote:

Whether these chemicals do actually hurt the rubber or not or whether they get in behind the O'rings and affect the manufacturer's lube set up is another matter - but I prefer safe to sorry as I do not want a chain sticking at 100 kph.
Kerosene is said to be OK by the manufacturers and in the 'olden days' we used it as it also got into all the fine joints and gaps and acted as a lube itself - with O'ring chains the gaps are too fine for it to penetrate and wash out the existing 'lube but it cleans well and doesn't affect the o'rings.
So, for all fashionista iphone, nerdy android and all the other users: this is the parts and terms list, mainland usage according to humanbeing and with pinyin. Going through this list I actually learned a lot of english words I had never heard of before or just did not know the meaning of.
Anyway, please all check for errors and typos and please add more if you know!

Can anyone tell me what a "high pressure switch - 高压… - gaoya…" is/does?
I'll try to get the full chinese word for it later, when I pick up my bike.
Here is a challenge ...
dielectric grease
How do I say / write that in Mandarin? I need to keep those electrical gremlins at bay. A taobao link would gain bonus marks!
Wow Jape - I am damn impressed! From the land down under, no less!
Thanks!
Next challenge, can you find it priced for under 10 rmb? :lol8:
Cheers mate
Thanks a million, Jape - truly appreciate it. I've been having a tough time finding this stuff.
Last challenge: find a dealer that pays me to acquire and use it.
can i get a translation for:
sit on my face and tell me that you love me, i'll sit on your face and tell you i love you.
its very important for when i get pulled over by the police, i will say i understand a little chinese, they will ask me for my license and then i say that... i dont think they will bother asking for my license again.
With tone marks, and many thanks to Sheng Jie!
