Used to have a "scottoiler" fitted on my last Fazer but am not going to spend another £80+ on another & their "special" oil. A little car/bike engine oil does a good job.
Clean chain with old paintbrush & paraffin. 4litres from B&Q for about £8. This amount will last many chain cleanings.
One of my local stealers tried to convince me to buy some chain wax, I was commuting about 100 mile a day in winter and my chain was spotless, he still kept harping on about this new wonder product, I walked out at this point
Complete fabrication, I didn't make it up!
