Do you grease your chain?
 

Just wondering what you guys do, i dont ever grease my chain, havent on any of the last 10 bikes i've owned, I just clean it with kerosene and wipe it off...

never had any problems, sold one of the R1's to a friend, and we finally replaced the stock chain at 25,000 miles

i just dont see how lube helps much other than maybe preventing rust,


I do mean only with 0-ring chains though, i would definately lube chains that were not 0-ring

how bout you?

When I get my bike serviced they grease it...Otherwise, No

When I lived in AZ, I only lubed the chain when it got washed or after a heavy rain.

Here in Okinawa, I lube all the damn time, but only because it would rust to hell in a month if I didn't.

i use chain clean and lube. The lube has blue in the name i forget the full name. Usually about every 200-300 miles, my chain looks brand new til I replace it.

I used to lube my chain... back when I had a chain...
I've moved on to bigger and better things since then.

Belt FTMFW!

And I used Bel-Ray lube...

I clean/lube my chains very frequently.

I ride in the rain a lot so yes...all the time.

I am now somewhat offroadin gmy priller by riding on these jobsites so I think I need to get more active in cleaning the chains now. I have been using the motul chain lube. goes on and doesnt seem to fling much if at all compared to others.

In a word: No. But when I had a chain I lubed pretty often. Why?...it's not really necessary on sealed o-ring chains...but it kept the noise down a bit. I used Dupont Teflon lube from Lowes.

I clean mine with kerosene and keep it waxed about every week or so, depending on how much I ride.
