that's what I use.
I used the R1 or F1 stuff and it's just too messy, it would fling all over the place.
i think the motorex stuff is pretty good..."We are not limited by our abilities. Only by our vision."

depends on how much sand is in your area i think. If there is a lot of sand it will stick to the chain wax. I used some white lithium based chain oil (PJ! I think) because it flings off sand that can harm the chain. my .02 and I am no expertMay the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind always be at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
and rains fall soft upon your fields.
And until we meet again,
May God hold you in the palm of His hand.RIP Marc

i use chain wax and lube, its good but the sand sucks for me cause it clings on it. to much cruising around beaches. i opt to take my chain off and soak it in oil every 500 miles. seems to work better then lubing sand. Sand and dirt will destroy your o-rings on the chain, so get them off asapthis is the best icon eva

I'd stay away from waxes because they retain dirt. Some people like to keep their bikes looking pretty, but if you don't mind a bit of oil on the rim, fling is a very good thing because it cleans the chain as you ride. I use straight 30wt, messy, but there's alot of sand on the roads around here.sigpic

I'll stand by my preference for using this
Get it at Lowe's (Only place I can find it) @ $4 a can. It's located near the tool aisles.
You can use it to CLEAN and LUBE the chain. I ride in all conditions, I soak the chain about every tankful of gas, after a ride with this stuff. My chain looks new....and it's got almost 20K on it.

hey JT,
how do you clean your wheel?
I used PJ1 and that thing flings like a mofo...there's no way i can keep my wheel clean...
I even got it on some of my clothes...it's like gum..."We are not limited by our abilities. Only by our vision."

Maybe they think it means pooOriginally posted by soulless kaosbut personaly I dont see a point in a 1000 you can get the same power from a properly tuned 600 with less weight and better handeling.
