    Use a tooth brush and clean the chain with kerosene/diesel. Then wipe off with a cloth and apply gear oil for lubrication. This is the most economical method.

    Else buy chain cleaner and lube set cans of Motul, Rolon etc as shown in the video. Search on YouTube for video tutorials on chain cleaning.

    A word of caution, always switch OFF the bike while working on the chain. Rotate the wheel by hand.

    I wish I knew it before. I can see that the product I got is exactly same and I believe its a Chinese product as I can't see any branding even in the pics on aliexpress moreover the colour is also same
    But the difference in price is huge. On aliexpress its just 2.5 US $ and I bought it for Rs 650/ after applying a discount coupon of Rs 100/. :banghead:

    I tried uploading a pic in my post but I think something is not right with the app as every time it uploads to 100% but never appears in the post. Will try sometime later from my laptop.

    And I ordered it from gadgetstuff.in. Though the buying experience is not great but still I was looking for it since a long time so worth the pain and inconvenience. If you or any one want to buy please opt for COD.

    Lubed your chain? make sure to clean your Disk brakes!

    So a few years back I was riding a Supermoto KLX250SF. Being the noob that I was one fine day i decided to lube my motorcycle chain. All that was fine until after I was done and I started riding. Few moments later I almost got T-boned by a car going above 60MPH simply because my brakes had 'FAILED'

    So I stood there , shaking and trembling and blaming the 'stupid' bike. I went back home and looked at the brake pads . . . . Perfectly fine. . . checked my brake fluid . . . Fine as well. . . while doing so I accidently put my hand on the disk brake.... EUREKA ! ! ! GREASSE.... My brake pads were slipping on these damn rotors like my shoe on a wet floor..All because I had not covered my disks while spraying Lubricant on my chain....

    Come to my question... That time I had used WD-40 and a simple cloth to degrease my rotor. . . Now in India what do you guys think is a good alternative to WD-40?

    Kindly coment below and make sure to clean you disks after you lube! :P Cheers!

After lubing the chain it feels little sticky and the best part is after lubing the chain the rear wheels are not spilled with the chain lube. Cost of both Cleaner and Lube 1050/-

    I have a KTM RC 200. First time, I had given my bike to SVC for chain cleaning and lubing. I noticed they are not using Motul (I forgot the product name). I drove the bike just 3 KMs after lubing, one side of my orange wheel, white underseat, number plate, reflectors were black. BTW, they charged me 180/-
    Hi from where did you purchase both Cleaner and Lube i too will be cleaning my chain for the first time .

    I bought it in Domlur, Bangalore. He is Motul official dealer. This place is located near Domlur bus stop towards Marathalli.

    Even I tried at several places, just gave this place a try and finally got it.

    Google coordinates: 12.961217, 77.637277

    Can't see your location on mobile, are you from Bangalore? If yes, then where did you buy it from? Especially Motul Chain Cleaner. I tried for sometime and gave up.
