Hi All
I have just had a new X Ring chain fitted as my oem honda lasted only 8500 miles, probably due to me not lubing as often as I should, and not keeping it adjusted correctly. The good news is that the bike feels brand new again. I went for the X Ring in the belief that they last longer.
In order to get decent mileage out of it I have been reading the threads and the web to see if I should fit an auto chain oiler.
Confusion Reigns
Too much oil is a problem, for X & O rings forcing the grease out?
Too litle oil and the chain and sprockets will wear out?
Cleaning the chain with anything abrasive can do the same?
Wax can attract more dust etc and cause greater wear?
So whats the best approach - Scottoiler or similar, regular spraying, or wax?
Cheers
