I got to admit, I use degreaser cleaner and wax chain lube, and have had no problems with it, I've heard a lot of people use WD-40 for this purpose, maybe I need to start saving money and use that instead. The degreaser on my painted swingarm does freak me out - that's some strong stuff. No problems though....

What are you using for lubrication outside of the cleaning part? The WD40 alone?

Hell no im using wd to clean now and a chain wax to luricate.

i missed the thread about using wd-40 to clean you chain, but i have always been advised against this because wd promotes dry rot of the rubber o-rings in the chain and therefore shortens the life of chain itself...have i been misled?

I hope so but knowing my luck im now stuffing my chain.
