I usually clean and lube my chain about every 300 miles...Honda reccomends every 200 but that seems a little to often for me, The other day I had the bright Idea to wet a rag wjth my Turtle Wax bug and Tar remover. That stuff works like a charm!! All grease and grime came off with almost no effort!! Looks as good as brand new!!

Might seem kinda menial I guess but hope it saves you some effort and time!!

Also I use Chain Wax...seems to penetrate and stick pretty good...anyone use anything different??

wesleys bleech white and a toof brush.

i would think the wesley's would be hard on the seals in the chain

I usualy do mine every 500 miles, or every time after getting caught in some rain.

also to clarify, I don't spray it directly on the chain....I don't know if it would hurt the seals?? I never tried wesleys or wd, isn't that kinda messy??

wesleys is made for use on rubber when you think about it...

ah i see...I might have to try that stuff to.

Oh and another tip I just wanted to throw out there:

Between complete washes I use a micro fiber cloth w/ this stuff called
Invisible Glass, It has no scents, dyes, soaps, or water. Yet it takes all bug and road grime right off. Leaving a deep shine without harming the clearcoat or leaving streaks. Got it at walmart. btw it also does an amazing job on glass haha

I had my car parked in the driveway and it got these waterspots on it and for some reason they wouldn't come off! I tried a buffer and other various cleaners and soaps, finally I gave up, you could still faintly see them after a year! Then i came across this Invisible Glass so I sprayed it on and with one swipe with a rag they were gone!! couldn't believe it!!

plus it's cheap! It says do not use on polycabonate plastic on the can but I have been using it for about a year every other day almost and my bike looks showroom!! It does real well on rims too!!
