Clean Chains
 

OK, I'm a bit fanatic about cleaning my chain. By a little... I mean, REALLY crazy about it. It's just one of my OCD things I guess. What I used to do was after each ride, I'd wipe down the chain with a rag that has been sprayed down with either kerosene or WD-40. Never spraying WD-40 directly on a chain... it will seat in the O or X rings and eat the rubber.

But, now I've found a new product. Motorex Chain Clean. :dthumb: It's FANTASTIC. I mean, spray on... wipe of. It is tested safe for X and O rings, and evaporates rather quickly, so I can see it doesn't stay anywhere. But, the grease wipes off easily. So easily that I cleaned the gunk in front of the front sprocket, on the motor, fling on the wheel, even the spray on my arm from using a grunge brush.

I was amazed.

To show how fanatic I am about it... here's a pic of my friend's chain that I cleaned on her SuperHawk. It was black and gooped when I got it... after are the pics below:

grunge brush is worth its weight in gold

Everytime I use the grunge brush all it manages to do is wipe the lube to some other part of the chain. I wipe clean.

oh god you should see my chain right now it makes me want to ralph.

where did you purchase this stuff did you buy it on the internet or can you get it in a parts store. I wanna check this stuff out.

Yeah my chain is filthy right now. Its on my spring break list so Id love to pick up some of that stuff by then if possible.

I've used the Motorex and the Mogul stuff both work fantastic with a grunge brush especially! Altho' I admit I got tired of running to buy it so I went back to pen oil.

I got it at our local Honda/Kawi/etc dealer. CycleGear carries it as well :)

Thats the cleanest chain I've ever seen. Nice job. I also use WD40 and the grunge brush...but I spray that shit right on.

Thas what we use also. We buy it at Cycle Gear.
