    when I get my 400EX I would use ProHonda i think it is called>?
    or Maxima chain lube.
    I ride mosly trails I live in Florida.
    and when the chain wears out I will get an O-Ring chain a little more money but well worth it.

    1986' , yea, there o-rings. I use Maxima Chain Wax and it works great. I ride on trails as well as on River Beds that are sand, clay, gravel, and anything else you can imagine the earth being made of and the Maxima still protects.

    I use this Bel-Ray stuff. It shoots out of the can like a foam, then turns into a lube. It really works itself into the O-rings and has kept the rust away. It was only like 6 bucks for a can at my local shop and I have had if for the whole summer so far and still have a bunch of it left. I was the wheeler every week so it gets lubed every week.
