For one thing, don't run the engine to spin the chain to clean the chain. Some guys on ninja forums* do this. crazy. 
Someone on a Kawasaki forum said his nephew lopped off a finger this way. no thanks and ouch.




* - and probably other forums too!!! ha ha.

Is that a finger or a toe???

I have several restored bikes along with a 2006 Goldwing with a sidecar. My wife has a 2019 Suzuki DR 650 for on and off road.
