I use 80W90 gear lube. You know, the stuff you put in the rear end of a car. It's probably the wrong thing to use, but it's cheap and I've never had a problem.

Maxima chain wax. I run only o-ring chains. An o-ring chain is permanently sealed and lubricated. It only requires a coating to protect the seals. I ride in coal silt, and you don't want to use anything that stays wet or tacky (such as gear oil), as it will hold dirt and contribute to premature chain wear.
i use bel-ray spray on...it puts a non sticky white coat on the chain...great stuff

i use wd-40 or 80w90 bar and chain oil for chainsaws..whichever i find first..i try not to use the wd-40 unless i have to tho
trikes owned:
85' 200m - sold
84' 200x - sold
83' 185s - sold
82' 185s - sold
85' 350x !!! - selling
I haven't used anything for years and have found that it doesn't make much difference in chain wear. I only put on a little WD-40 after washing to displace water.

i use regular old chain lube you can get anywhere...i figure if the chain is lubed, its lubed. and thats the bottom line.

Not so! Some chain lubes are way too tacky for dirt riding and actually make the dirt cling to it........and that's the bottom line!Originally Posted by hrc85250r
I have found Honda that goes on clear & Belray super clean that goes on a white-gray color (a few mentioned already) are the best that I have ever tried. DO NOT get the Belray wax type!! Thats the worst ever as far as I'm concerned. Probably any of the "wax" ones attract the dirt.
I got the other type belray by mistake one time.I wouldn't even give that stuff away! It was that bad.
true, some do collect dirt, but after a good ride the chain needs to be relubed and usually has dirt on it anyways, so after it gets pressure washed i always relube it....i use white lithium chain and cable lube, i have never had a problem with it on my renthal o-ring chain and i have had it for 2 years now...Originally Posted by Huffa
