Hi there, I just got my CBR 250R last wednesday and im very very happy with it, Love it!

However we had some Bad weather the last dass and so I Want to lube my chain.

What lube is good? Just any chain Oil spray or is there something special?
What do they use at the Dealer when servicing the CBR?

Is there anything to do wrong?

Regards Daniel

I like the castrol chain wax. Keep in mind that the o-ring chains are internally lubed, so what you'e putting on is for the outside of the rollers and sprockets and to prevent rust. There are a number of good products on the market.

The trick is to clean, but not overclean, the chain. Some people use WD-40 on a rag, others use a mild degreaser. Best time to do it is after a ride but ~8 hours before your next one.

In a previous life I used to soak (old, non o-ring chains) in gas, let them dry, then melt a pot of grease and dunk the chain in it. Trust me, the new chains are much better!

I use DuPont Chain Saver

it creates a teflon film on the chain, dry and self cleaning.

I've been using it on my other bike and that is what i intend to use on my CBR250R. I lube my chain every after 2 tank fulls or 500 miles.

I second the chain saver. Lubes well and keeps the dirt off.

This is what I use as well along with the Dupont cleaner/degreaser.

Everyone has an opinion on chain lube just like oil. I personally like Amsoil Heavdy duty MP. It's a wax and wont fling.

I use the older Dupont Dry Lube, but the newer one (Chain Saver) may be better from the sound of it.

I use the Motul chain clean with a grunge brush and then Motul factory chain lube. Lovely products.

Hi and thanks for the answers. So most of you agree that the DuPont products are good, maybe the best and u cant go wrong with those?

Well the problem that I am facing now is, it is probably not available here. I am studying in Indonesia, and I am originally from Germany. Well, I went shopping for my CBR yesterday and what I got is a chain lube (spray) called "Master Chain Lube" anyone heard of that before? It was the only lube that looked like a brand lube and explicitly stated that its O-ring safe.

So how can I buy the DuPont products in Indonesia or in Germany? Anyone got experience with that?

Regards

Chainlube has got to be Motorcycles.. not industrial non Oring chains.

And the best one is the one thats used often regardless of brand.

But Motal is so nice.

i'm not sure if you can order from Amazon.com and have it delivered to Indonesia. Worth trying though.
