any of the chain lube made for o-ring chains. i use the honda just because i can get it easily. i hear a lot of people talking how they like the maxima products.

i use the honda stuff too. i used to use the maxima chain wax but that stff attracts dirt and any overspray will create a greasy, caked dirt buildup on your swingarm, and whole rear end. Iwould stay away from the wax stuff. actually you could prolly just use wd40 on it since the links are already sealed and lubed on an o ring. You just spray the outside to keep it pliable and prevent rust/corrosion.

Motul chain clean and motul chain lube, Ive used a few and this seems to work best, kinda like wd-40 but just a little stronger...

I use Bel-Ray Super Clean which also O-Ring safe. It clings to the chain and doesn't attract dust and also doen'st create much over spray and create grease build up on your rear end as paul mentioned.

whatever you use make sure you lube underneath the chain...i use white lithium grease & let it sit overnight...kinda messy though but its cheap & works decent
