What do you think the best chain grease is? How often do you need to grease your chain? This is a dumb question but i have never owend an atv with a chain. Where exactly do you put the grease?

Thanks Jerrod

 

I am a big believer in Maxima's "Chain Wax" I had good results out of it , You just warm the machine up spray it on the chain and let it dry. I never replaced a chain as long as I was using it and seemed like I rarely had to adjust the chain. On an O-ring chain use a dry type lubricant or just a rust preventive lube like WD-40. Oils will attract grit which will grind away on your chain like sandpaper. Oh , Maxima products are in the Dennis Kirk Catalog and a lot of dealerships have it.

I use the Chain Wax too. Ride your quad for 5 minutes to warm up the chain, when you apply the wax, the heat will pull it in between the rollers like soldering flux. I was told not to use WD-40 because it had a negative affect on the O-Rings, so I stick with the chain wax.

 

SportKod,

WD-40 is all I use on mine now and my O-rings are fine. I've had no ill affects at all. Most pros (GNCC XC) use WD-40 too. granted they probably change their chains after every race or two, but all you really need is something to keep the rust off the chain.
