Re: Cleaning chain with kerosine?
With the rear wheel off the ground it is easy to rotate the wheel and use a small paint brush to clean the chain. Wipe off excess after you are done. Let dry for a while or go for a short ride to fling off remainder of kerosene. Then apply fresh chain lube. That is my method anyway. Also pick up a large shallow aluminum pan to put under the bike while cleaning. A big cookie sheet would work well too.
For the really hardy souls don't forget to check out the front sprocket area for build up of mung and chain lube. Take off the front sprocket cover and be prepared for a mess to clean up. Lottsa fun.
