Chain lubricants, Troy Corser Style

As a motorcyclist, you know that every part of your motorcycle is important for safety and performance. But one part that is often overlooked is the chain.

Regular chain maintenance, especially chain lubrication, is essential for the lifespan and performance of your motorcycle. In this blog post, we discuss why lubricating your chain is so important, the benefits it offers, and what can happen if you neglect this maintenance. Our chain grease is perfect for long-lasting protection and enhances performance! Together with double WSBK champion Troy Corser we explain further;

Why is lubricating your chain important?

1. Extension of the Chain's Lifespan

A well-lubricated chain ensures less wear. Without sufficient lubrication, there is more friction and rubbing between the links and the sprockets, causing both to wear out quickly. This can cause the chain to stretch, which can lead to less precise drive and eventually chain breakage. By regularly applying chain lubricant, the chain continues to operate smoothly and its lifespan is significantly extended.

2. Improved performance

A well-lubricated chain slides more easily over the sprockets, allowing power to be transferred more efficiently from the engine to the rear wheel. This means your motorcycle responds better and faster to throttle input, improving overall performance. Additionally, a well-lubricated chain helps distribute power evenly, resulting in a smoother ride and less strain on the engine. Efficiency is Key!

3. Protection against Corrosion


During riding, the chain is exposed to various elements such as dirt, water, and mud, especially in wet or dirty conditions. Without protection, this exposure can lead to rust and corrosion, causing serious damage to the chain. Our chain lubricant acts as a protective barrier against these elements and keeps your chain in good condition, regardless of the riding conditions.

4. Reduction of Friction and Heat

Friction is the worst enemy of a chain and your drivetrain. If a chain is not properly lubricated, the increased friction between the links and sprockets not only causes wear but also heat. This heat can weaken metal parts and eventually lead to a broken chain. By regularly lubricating your chain, you reduce heavy friction and thus heat, which contributes to a longer lifespan of both the chain and the sprockets.

And.. The Consequences of an Unlubricated Chain!

A chain that is not regularly lubricated can cause a lot of problems:

- Rapid wear:As mentioned earlier, the chain will wear out much faster without regular lubrication, leading to costly replacements. These can easily be prevented with our high-quality chain grease.
- Poor driving experience: A dry chain can get stuck or hesitate while riding, causing uneven power transmission. This can make the ride not only unpleasant but also dangerous.
- Risk of chain breakage: Perhaps the most serious consequence of a poorly maintained chain is that it can break while riding. A broken chain can cause severe damage to the engine and even lead to accidents.
- Increased fuel consumption: A poorly lubricated chain increases air resistance, which means the engine has to work harder to deliver the same performance. This ultimately leads to higher fuel consumption.

Choose our chain grease just like Troy Corser. Our chain grease is specially designed to perform under the most extreme conditions, making it perfect for both daily use and top-level motorsport.

Why Choose Our Chain Lubricant?

Our chain grease offers several unique advantages that distinguish it from other lubricants on the market:

- Superior water resistance: Our formula is waterproof, which means it stays in place and does its job even in wet conditions.
- Long-lasting protection: Our grease stays on the chain longer, even after long rides in tough conditions.
- Minimizes splashes: While some chain lubricants tend to splatter and dirty your motorcycle rims, our chain lubricant stays in place, keeping your chain and bike clean.
