I know, I know..i should have used the search button. But I am terrible at it. I was just wondering if there is a how to on oil the chain. Or its too simple to even be added to how to.

 

Section 3-16 (pg60-64) of factory Honda Service Manual for Drive Chain. Pg61 specifically for lubrication.

Honda recommends #80-90 gear oil or equivalent for lubrication. Basically, any quality chain lube will be sufficient.

How I lube my chain after cleaning & inspection... I have the bike up on my rear stand...bike in neutral. I put an open section of newspaper behind the chain to protect overspray, so it doesn't get on the wheel/tire/etc. I spray chain lube onto a section of the chain (newspaper catching overspray), roll the wheel forward to advance the chain an increment & spray, repeat.

When done lubricating, let sit for lube to absorb into chain. Then, gently roll the wheel to advance chain completely around to even out lube. Done.

 

thank you so much. This forum is helpful for new riders like myself.
