One of the reasons I ride a shaft driven bike

But seriously... WTF, dude... How can anyone think that starting up the motorcycle when cleaning the chain, is a "good idea"?

My bike is gear driven from the transmission back. Change the oil every 12,000 km and we're good.

It also doesn't cause the handling problems that a shaft drive does.

* A long downhill trail can be particularly straining if you are tense. The more relaxed you are the faster you’ll go.
* Get your buttocks off the saddle and shift your hips backward. Flex your arms at the same time. You must be able to slightly pinch your saddle with your inner thighs. You must be as balanced as possible on your two pedals.
* If the terrain is smooth you won't need to be too far above the saddle, 1 inch is enough. But always be prepared to absorb an impact you didn't see coming. The rougher it gets the further back from the saddle you'll get and the lower your upper body will go
* Look as far forward as you think you can stop. Constantly scan what’s upcoming and keep your eyes focused only on where you can ride.

My bike is stored indoors, so it all depends on the conditions in which I ride. If it's nice outside, it does not require washing, but sometimes I'm just in the "mood" to ride a nice clean bike. I'd say on average I wash about twice to three times a week (it doesn't take a lot of effort or time to wash a bike). I have not washed my new bike yet, but I'm sure twice a week will be just fine.
