Which oil for my chain?

[Greg Masters]

Can anyone say which oil is best for the chain on my DR-Z 400?

Should I use axle grease or some cooking lard?

i find extra virgin olive oil works fine on salads and many other places, so should be fine drizzled on your chain.

a bit of oregano and/or lemon juice can be added for a change.

They don't have oregano and other posh stuff in the Hertfordshire lanes, would long grass and a few water reeds do?

Hey Dahoum, that is a public service that you're providing, I hope that you charge accordingly

It'll be an O Ring chain so just use either a spray 'dry lube, or WD40 to stop the outer going rusty, that's it

Oils will just fly off although a while back there was an oil produced from the stickiest substance known to man......Whale sperm Honest

Chainsaw oil in the scott oiler, as you'll find whale sperm clogs up the nozzles...and using it can be hazardous..lots of women follow your bike around, sniffing the air - bit like the Lynx deodorant advert ( Castrol 2 stroke does it for the men though, if your, ahem, that way inclined )
