I am not sure what might have caused this.
There is some black thing on my girlfriend's coat after a day trip.

I think its the chain lube. (I am using Motul)
The chain guard is stock, but I've got a fender eliminator.

This problem has to be stopped as it have already got 2 cloths dirty!
Wondering any people have the same problem and also, how do u get chain lube off the cloths. (if that's chain lube)

Could be chain lube,but then again wearing white clothes on a bike isn't the best idea!

Whatever it is,the other half probably won't let it go in a hurry :D

Anything like my missus and that little mark would escalate into me buying her a whole new wardrobe :eek:

Buy her a riding jacket and make sure she gears up.

Not a suitable jacket for a bike. And it's white.

Get her to take it to a dry cleaners

it could be chain lube as its the only oily thing there is at the back of a bike. if the chain lube was freshly done and you did not give it time to settle a bit it would surely splash everywhere no matter if its motul or wurth ecc..

i agree with the other posts. if your girlfriend rides pillion regularly make her gear up. its a worthy investment. You can look at it this way..it would be her uniform for riding so she won't rant and ramble what is she going to wear!:D
