i will be switching to SAE90 grade...difference is..it must be thicker than the engine oil. Hence, it will be there for more kms.

The SAE90 oil is totally VFM.

Also am using Veedol SAE 90 oil it wrks fine the only disadvantage is as Niranjan mentioned it gets splattered on the mags which looks bad.

Well even chain spray's splatter!
I've used chain sprays for close to 15K kms (Wurth+OKS), after using both gear oil and chain spray I've learned that its more about the technique(method of application) that actually makes a diff. With gear oil I get minimal splatter these days.
I'll try and put up a post for cleaning and maintaining the our chains. Coz my chain sprocket lasted really long, I got it changed at 20K kms, which is a lot more than what it usually runs. So IMHO, I must be doing something right...
<hopefully>

My first chain spray (Wurth) lasted me almost 10K kms. And I used it really really liberally. But the 150/- rupees of gear oil will definitely last me the lifetime of my bike. So yes its totally VFM!

Well they have categorically mentioned that they don't do deliveries, but the website allows you to place an order....
