The old one was starting to cause duplicates and was getting slow.

I've been using wd40 to clean my chain for two years now. I clean the chain with wd40, wipe it with a rag, and spray chain wax on it to lube it. I got 25k miles on my chain before I replaced it, I kept the regular sprockets though. 0 issuesYeah, I think that comes largely from the days of bias ply tires (my Vmax has them). Even at pressure they don't return to smooth, round profile for a while. So after it sits for a while it can be an interesting ride :lol
With the radial tires, none of my other bikes have ever shown any significant signs of flat spotting, and some of them have sat for months on end. This year I hope to replace tires on everything at least once. If it's not raining and above 45, I'm planning to be on two wheels.
I don't know that I'd use PB Blaster on an O ring chain. But if it's working, good on you. I use almost exclusively WD 40 on all my chain driven bikes, and my chains have lasted longer than some people keep their bikes.
I think almost any regular cleaning and lubricant makes more of a difference than using some $80 lube once every oil change. :dunno
yeahhhh man!!Suoercross race tonight wooohoo

I'd stay away from PB Blaster to clean your chain. It's some harsh stuff to put on your O-Rings. Stick with kerosene or WD40.Talkin bout cleaning the chain and which is best is like talking about religion and which is best, everyone has there own favorite and swears by it. I personally use pb blaster to clean my chain followed by some chain lube all though I can't think of the brand at the moment
I had a Scorpion high mount on my '03 R1. Very good quality and well made in the UK. It had a sweet mellow {not ear bleeding loud} tone to it.Got my scorpions on tonight got to finish other upgrades tomorrow along with a much needed bath View attachment 479653 View attachment 479654
