Motorcycle chains tend to be lubricated “real quick” just before a ride – often leaving too little time for the chain lubricant to penetrate and air dry so it will adhere properly. Ideally the chain should be lubricated after use. Before winter or after intensive use, it is also best to clean the chain before lubricating it. Here’s how:
Good chain care starts with proper cleaning. For that, clean your chain with CHAIN CLEAN DEGREASER SPRAY after the ride. It’s best to wrap the chain in an absorbent cotton rag, then point the chain cleaner’s powerful stream down onto it from above. Remove residue from the chain bit by bit in the direction of rotation.
Once the chain is clean, visually inspect it and lift it from the sprocket to check for excess play (wear).
The MOTOREX product range has the right lubricant or every chain. By lubricating and reducing friction, it protects against wear and corrosion. After cleaning spray CHAINLUBE onto an unobstructed portion of the chain (not onto the sprocket). Apply amply to the entire width of the chain between the outer and inner bushings. Allow chain spray to penetrate. Wipe off excess chain spray with a soft cotton cloth.
Highly effective cleaning agent for all drive chains; effectively removes highly adhesive residues. An excellent basis for optimal chain maintenance. Tested and found suitable for use in X-ring and O-ring chains.
