I have been trying a variety of chain lubes and am very pleased with Honda's HP Lube with Graphite. Applied it to my Wee-Strom at 1100 miles after first giving the chain a good cleaning with kerosene. Checked the chain after each ride and found it to be clean, adjusted properly and well-lubed. Did a dual-sport ride last weekend with lots of dirt and gravel. Upon returning home, the chain looked like it could use a good cleaning, but it was still well-lubed. Had 2100 miles on the odo, so the Honda lube did its job for 1000 miles - very impressive. Fling off was much less than PJ1 black label and comparable to Motul. With PJ1 black on my cruiser, I could get 900 miles of acceptable lubricity, but the fling off was very bad and made a big mess. I have also used Motul with good results - light fling off and acceptable lubricity up to 900 miles.
