Need advice from bros here who ride chained bikes or used to ride chained bikes. What is the best way to lube the chain such that it's easy to clean? Previous owner uses Motul Factory Line chain lube. It's sticky, stays on longer but is hard to remove/clean. Even using Motul chain cleaner is difficult. It turns out, 3in1 heavy duty degreaser works better than Motul, (dunno whether it will harm those *-rings) but it still took me the whole can and 2 hours to clean, and still not as clean as it can be. Can't imagine myself wasting time on this.

 

I am using this product. Dupoint Chain saver.

 

This is the image.

 

It is a solid fraction modifier, it is non sticky unlike conventional chain lub.

 

I get to know this product from a MO in this forum.

Thanks. SW wash and wax only 30min. No main stand is a problem. Do you think 1 person can use the bike stand to jack up / down the rear w/o toppling the bike? Heard Scottoiler is good as just need water to rinse off the dirt. How true? I have the water jet spray to rinse off.

 

Ever use scottoiler on my African Twin, messy on the rim and chain guard. I never clean my chain since I bought the bike last october. you can drop by by place and try out the Dupoint lub.

Preference: Bah Kut Teh or Lobster?

 

BKT is good but it has to be breakfast right...?

If it is BKT, tcss can come along follow by joining for ride to factory outlet.

Was using this brush and diesel to clean my chain on my Super 4. Cuts down cleaning time from 2 hours to 30 mins. Brand is Laser bought from ebay.

One of the best chain lube I ever used is the Driven Chain Juice bought from Unique for $25.

Thanks bros who offered advices on chain lubrication and cleaning. From what I gather, there are basically 2 types - wet and dry lube. Still exploring the various methods at this point. Had temporarily sprayed on a dry silicone lube more for rush protection as don't really use the bike daily. Much appreciated

Dont use dry ones, it will turn ur chain into silly blue or white color. For dirt bikes.

Wet based with Teflon or sperm oil. Clear that will penetrate your chain..Used it only when the chain is warm.

hmm... isn't this a dry lube?

 

DuPontâ„¢ Teflonâ„¢ Chain-Saver Lubricant

- Goes on wet. Sets up to a clean, dry, wax film which will not absorb dirt or grime.

From your desription,is like a wet lube. Maybe for both dirt and street bikes. Sometimes your will see Super 4, usually lah with dirty chain with blueish stain, those are dry ones.
