    These days I prefer shaft driven bikes.

    But when I rode chain driven bikes, I really liked Putoline spray-on lube.

    Silkolene Chain Gell, works a treat for me. I load the chain heavily and never have any muck flinging off.
    Nail your colours to the mast that all may look upon them and know who you are.
    It takes a big man to cry...and an even bigger man to laugh at that man.

    After using both types I know that the Maxima product is better at not flying off the chain

    I found Silkolene very clean but not that good as to buy another can. Just didnt seem to stay lubey enough and I put plenty on at times.

    I have just picked up Fuchs semi synthetic (had no Maxima which is what I wanted to try) and put that on last night, seems OK but shes hardly a long highspeed commute, still no flingage, will see how the spooge accumulates.

    The next step up was Fuchs racing oil for 36 hard earned bucks. that stuff must be excellent

    Look, if you want to be regarded as a proper motorbicyclist, you must use the correct terminology. Just as you say, "I ride a bike", rather than, "I drive a bike", and you address the various bits of the bike by their correct names (footpeg, not pedal; handlebar(s) or 'bars, not steering thing; throttle, not accelerator), so too you must talk the lingo when it comes to other more mundane aspects of the Brotherhood of Motorbicyclists.

    It's chain spooge, not shit (unless it's definitely excrement of some sort). It's chain spooge, not muck (unless you've been using your bike as a muck-spreader.

    And the same goes for the assorted crap that other vehicles spew onto the road, for your poor bike to get covered with: it's road spooge, not "assorted crap that other vehicles spew onto the road".

    ... and that's what I think.

    Or summat.


    Or maybe not...

    Dunno really....

    Where in Auckland did you buy it? Been wanting to try this lube.
    Don't just live to ride but ride to live.
