[QUOTE="76GMC1500, post: 1135042, member: 73139"] Someone mentioned chain lube in another post today. What do you all do for chain lube? I am running a non-o-ring chain so I must lube a lot. I had been using Honda's chain lube, but am very unsatisfied with its performance. Half way through a ride, the chain gets noisy and squeaky. I have had ok luck with the wax type chain lubes, but the dirt really sticks to them. For budget reasons and an overall dissapointment with chain lubes, I decided to go my own route. Now, I mix motor oil for its lubricating properties with WD-40 for its penetrating properties. I painted everything on with a small paint brush. It makes a little bit of a mess when you run it the first time and the excess oil flings off, you could wipe it off I guess. But, even after riding in all kinds of conditions from hardpack to sand to mud today, the chain still doesn't have a hint of squeak to it. I may stick with this motor oil and WD-40 mixture for a while. [/QUOTE]
