Hey guys. So I got a new chain the other day and just recently installed it myself. Since this is my first motorized bike and first issue I tried to solve myself, i depended on my best friend for tutorials; youtube. So here are a few concerns and questions that I have about whats been happening with the bike:
1. After about 10-15 minutes of riding, ill notice what seems to be the chain getting sticky and not rotating the back tire smooth enough. When I pull the clutch and walk the bike, it will be pretty tough to do so which results in difficult pedaling. Is this normal for a new chain that needs breaking in? or should i be putting some kind of chain lubricant on it?
2. On top of the engine, a black liquid is starting to develop which is difficult to clean because its caked up inside the grooves of the outside of the engine. i dont think its gasoline because it is black.
