Oil every time, why waste you money on anything else 

[slappy]

Oil every time as well, cheap and effective and always got some in the garage.

No mention of Scottoiler in poll.

I use a scottoiler all the time and getting 40000miles from chains

[Hedgetrimmer]

Scottoiler on mine too, still having to remind myself to check the reservoir level regularly...why? I always managed to keep a check on the chain when using spray lube with the last bike

Worth investing in an automatic chain oiler ( Scottoiler/Tutoro etc). The increased mileage obtained from chains & sprockets will soon repay the cost.

Scotoiler with the Touring reservoir. Just check the flow rate when the temperature changes majorly and don't let it run dry. Sorted
