not that i know of.. i used chain wax for my 06 and i ma using it for my 08 now. maxima chain wax

 

i hav both maxima chain wax and lube. didn't use the wax anymore bec afraid it'll dry up the chain o-ring. the lube penetrate better and don't dry up, but wax have better anti-fling property and makes my bike a lot cleaner. since u hav more experience in using the wax, i may switch back to using it and will see how it performs in the long run:thumb:

hmm.. i disagree. i think chain wax is better as it does not fling. physical properties will tell a person that oil is liquid and will fling. wax more semi-liquid. when its cold its more solid and when it warms up it liquifies and its thicker that oil. and it doesnt get fling off thta easily compared to oil

and oil and wax both sticks dirt. even water also sticks dirt . watch yr rims after u ride in the rain.. and scottoiler is fine on local roads so teh chains are not moving very fast so it wont fling so much . and both oil and wax are easy to clean off yr chain with the rite tools.

and scott oiler has its major flaw.. over reliance. if u forgot to check the oil level and its dry u wont notice and yr chain get dry and demaged.

the valve is not working yr chain gets dry and demaged. u never set enough flow and the chain gets dry and demaged.. or worse still yr container gets broke and oil leaked all over and u skid ouch!!! these are just examples.

whereas if u oil /wax yr chain yrself u will alwasy check the chain.. imagine u are in thailand and u find yr chain dry and u check that u are out of oil where u get replacement?? yr valve is spoil no oil coming out then how? in some places its not easy to buy a bottle of chain lube like in singapore..

so i would say scottoiler not the best

 

Change to a shaft-driven ride, then no more such headaches?? :confused: :confused: :confused:

 

Sorry, I shouldn't say much here, cos I may have to go back to buying chain wax together with you at LAB... hahaha...

i misconception

when cold the wax seems to be just on the surface but when warmed up the wax will melt and flow into the chians lubing the o rings.

whereas oil is teh opposite when cold ol looks like its lubing teh chain but when u travel fats the oil gets fling out drying the o ring..

I am pretty interested in threads when it gets more detailed/technical. As a active/curious rider, I try to participate in them, also to pick-up pointers/experience/hands-on from the even more experienced seniors/members, one way or another.

 

On the other hand, I share whatever is relevant at the point of thread discussion with like minded or interested parties from what I experienced.

 

These might be useful, or it might not..

i newbie rider... i only know scott oiler have serve me well for my bike. min hit abt 50k for my s4 before i itchy backside go and change the chain cos scare chain break/snap as all my frd using lub already change the chain at 20K+ and my small busa already hit 42k and yet to tighten chain.

 

which ever lub u going to use as long as u does proper maintainance to it and lub it at abt 500km interval for the lub and wax user. u are ok. but i am a lazy man. i dun wash my chain or lub it at 500km or lub it after riding in the rain but i choose to lub it every time i start my bike.

i pity my bike now actually.

after a few rain rides and trips... i still havnt wash the bike at all and the stupid chain still "shiny"

Hi Nicholai,

 

My intention was not to gate-crash & sell RACEshield. My experience was not ideal in certain threads with some members within that certain thread.

 

It will be lovely if you can direct your inquiries in my advertiser thread (http://www.singaporebikes.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=103). Thank you very much... :cheers:

 

hey bro how's thing.

 

anyway aside to ar2.

i yet to see another busa rider who have done the race shield or is it only me who "waste" $$ to put it? :p

 

anyway i think it is a gd investment. can check with akg and tish and my bike. then u all will know wat the differ :) i remember the last moto gp. akg black tape the front while tish nv and end up his got pimple all over the "face" anyway he wan to upgrade to 08 busa le so nvm la :p

whereas oil is teh opposite when cold ol looks like its lubing teh chain but when u travel fats the oil gets fling out drying the o ring..

 

But when the wax heats up, won't it behave like any other oil and gets fling out due to centrifugal force? Dun tell me wax so good that when it gets heated up, it KNOWS that must go against centrifugal force and go be a good lube and lubricate the O-rings? Dun bang me with your busa please! 08 model very expensive! :angel:

Thinking back, the shield would be good to apply when paintwork is fresh and 'pimple free'. Too late for me now lah, maybe when I backside itchy go change colour scheme then apply. :angel:

of course wax will fling but in terms of viscosity its thicker than oil so the thicker it is the harder it is to fling compared to oil which is so much easier to fling. amd at locla nirmal roads oil start to get fling for wax u reali need high speeds for it to fling ard..

cos i dont use scott oiler i need to wash my swingarm and degrease my chain plus lub it.

i used both oil and wax before and after using wax cleaning was so much easiler becose its not so dirty. especially when i onli ride locally the swingarm is not dirty at all i dont need to clean my swingarm etc.. but when i use oil and just ride locally my swingarm is a mess.

Why you guys do not follow my example? Don't lube your chain too often then swing arm stays clean most of the times, and when chain is spoilt just change the bloody thing.

 

Cheers

Yup agree! Screw the scottoiler, chain wax or chain lub. Just change the bloody chain... haha... then the wheel and swingarm will always be grease free!!! :thumb:

 

Also don't need to debate how the oil fling at low speed or wax fling at high speed etc... :cool:

Point taken. I seldom ride the busa locally because I value my license alot! hehe, and since I ride mostly in other countries at speeds thats quite impossible locally, whatever type of lubricants I use would be sh!t as it would most likely fling.

 

You guys know how its like over the causeway, after a ride there, the whole bike is caked with insects... whats a dirty swingarm? :angel:

Wow... thats taking it abit too far man! Let me push it a bit further... my bike is due for an oil and filter change. And since I dun wanna be bothered with the different types of engine oil and filters available, I guess I would just have to change the whole bike!:cheeky:

 

 

*Slap myself* Ain't found a job that pays me that well yet!

You took it way too far. Just change your engine will do.
