    I also use maxima chain wax, very easy and it doesnt fling off. I have the amsoil stuff too but it didnt seem to stay on that great.

        Yep, the only chain on a shaft-drive bike is the cam chain.

          Thanks, Zooks, I was wondering when somebody would comment on that.

            By the book, but…

            I use 90 wt. gear oil because that's what the manual recommends! No really because I have a bottle sitting on the shelf I want to use up. It splatters all over the wheel and tire, but remains a long time on the chain too.
            I'm looking for a cleaner chain lube too.

              +1 on the Teflon, especially in dusty environments. I may experiment with WD40 upon some testimonial of some fellow dual sport riders, but I have a lot of the DuPont Teflon to go through first.
