Nasty Chain Lube
 
I'm fed up with this stuff. Every single time I lube my chain, the crap is all over my wheel and swingarm!

Silkolene "Maintain" Chain Lube sucks!

"No Fling" my ass. I think it had a guarantee- maybe I can get some money back. I HATE it. Just washed my bike, and now the rear is filthy again. I did absolutely everything I could to prevent fling- cleaned the chain, wiped it down, made a quick 7 mile loop to heat the chain up, used as little as possible, let it sit overnight. The first time I used the Silkolene, my wheel and swingarm were BLACK. Figured I used too much, so I cut back the next time- same thing. Third time, and they're dirty AGAIN! The shit's on the swingarm, the chain guard, exhaust, rim, hub, and the inside of the tire- almost dangerous! If it managed to get even 1/2" around the tread side, it could be life threatening.

Worst Product EVER. Fucking garbage. I'm going to buy another can of Maxima's Chain Wax today and redo it- after I clean my wheel and swingarm AGAIN.

I use bel ray super clean. It doesn't fling, but it will leave a white dust residue for the first few miles.

Picked up a can of chain wax. Got soaked on the way home- 75 miles. Got home, ate, showered, blacked out. Have to clean and lube it today.

I like it,it flings a little but unlike chain wax you can clean it off the body panels of your bike with heavy solvents!
