Hi bro,
merry Christmas to you & everyone here.
I have used motul, rolon, tvs chain spray, oks, diamond spray & then I used gear oil sae120(100 bucks for ten uses)... My bike felt smooth with no chain noise on either of these so now I stick to gear oil as its pocket friendly & is a fun DIY.

I used Motul Chain lube till date,
but thats a quite painful dent to the pocket (500bucks)
I also considered WD-40,but with some research I found it to be inadequate for long term lubrication purpose.

And as per my knowhow SAE90 Gear oil will not do the job in any exposed sealed O-Ring chain.

Brother, as per my understanding, WD40 used to clean the chain but sill have controversies around of using WD40 for cleaning.

In O-ring chains, the job role of the lubricant is limited to keep the chain wet. So, the chain spray used for lubrication, keeps the O-ring healthy.
But most of my friends are using gear oils with great satisfaction though. What is written in your owner's manual regarding the chain lubing, can be followed safely.

WD40 on O Rings or any other sealed chain types is a big no-no,
Although the composition of WD40 is still in debate,but it does contain diesel or something similar,it actually corrodes the rubber oil seals in the chain,thus wear and tear.

Christmas ki Badhaiyan sab ko

In Chain Lubes,Which is better Motul,Cyclo or Rolon ?

I was using Motul till date but now considering Rolon.(Financial reasons )

I was using Supreme Chain Spray(100 bucks) for 1.5 years. Did the job. Not great but good at that price point.
For the last few months, I've been using Motul(550 bucks). Great must say! The particles stay longer. The lubrication remains for a longer period of time. Worth the price.

One more thing. Please don't ride through the Rajarhat Expressway at high speeds during dawn/morning. It's not the right place to do so specially in the amount of fog that we are seeing in the last two days. I'd rather suggest, completely avoid the Expressway if possible and use the VIP Road(through Kaikhali). It's a suggestion.
See you people tomorrow @ 6:30 am.
