Motorcycle Tip - Master Link Fix

Here's a Motorcycle Tip submitted by Boy.

I was stranded once because I lost the master link in my motorcycle chain. I was able to track down the link but no luck in finding the pin. As my YZ was a light bike, I started pushing. I was in the middle of nowhere. I had several miles to go when I realized a soda tab from the barrow pit might get me a little closer to home if it fit on the link. I discovered as long as I didn't go fast it was just fine. Eventually though it came off and I lost the link all together but by then I was only a mile out from my home.

Hope this motorcycle tip saves you a long hike someday.
