the 350x manual says to lubricate the drive chain with SAE #80 or #90 gear oil, what would be the best to use/what do you use? Also how often do you clean and lube the chain? thank you

I use some generic spray on white lithium grease after every ride. Is it the best? I don't know. But it is easy to put on and it stays put.

I just use some gear oil. Or in a pinch, I might use bar and chain oil for a chainsaw.

You're supposed to oil chain? .....learn new things every day. And that last one lasted for 8 years without any lube at all! Haha.....

I like wax spray on an o-ring chain, doesn't pick up or throw much. In theory you don't even have to lube an o-ring chain, but it does prevent rust.

I think you're confusing drive chains with a different kind of chain.

Bump…..80-90w gear oil will prevent orings from drying up. Don’t need much. If it is slinging all over then too much was applied. The shop book is my favorite go to, anymore…

I bought my first can of maxima, recently. All I can say is it’s pretty sticky.
