I decided to try the Loobman in hopes of easing the chain maintenance on my DL1000 as I put about 300-500 miles on it during my weekly commute.
I attached it to my Givi tubular racks and the hose run is very short giving me about 1 minute to get moving before the oil hits the chain. I've been using 90W oil for a week now and it does its job admirably. I just squeeze and go every morning and the chain stays wet for the day. I still give it a good clean when it needs it and spray Belray chain wax on it to seal the external parts. So far I like it. Makes being a lazy a__ very easy. Took about 1 week to arrive after ordering on-line, about 1 hour to install. The instructions are not the best but if you read them a few times installation problems can be avoided.
I'm still using my stock chain at 11K miles and it is at the 12.6' limit and rattles a bit under heavy loads. I ordered a new DID chain and new sprockets and am hoping to get a little more mileage out of the DID.
