Don't change your content Stu. The varied content is the attraction of the channel.
absolutely
Yes keep doing what you doing. One of the best channels for honest opinion on royal Enfield. It's what pushed me over the edge on purchasing one.
Chain cleaning and lubing is the most taboo and the hardest question in the same time. Congratulations on closing on 100k subs. You deserve it.
Clean with kerosene. Lube with gear oil(applied with old toothbrush). Can’t be beaten on cost. Recommended by all chain , manufacturers.
Thanks, Uncle Stu, I appreciate you doing all of the research and feeding it back so I can stay updated and informed. You do all the hard work and I'm grateful for that. Keep it up and I wish you continued success with this channel =)
I used to have one of Hitchcock’s duckbills on a pre-unit bullet. It directed blow by from the engine onto the chain for a constant hot oil treatment. It was pretty great, except for some oil being thrown on the rear rim. Of course, these days this would make an environmentalist curl up into a fetal position.
Stuart, please please do not change your approach to all things relevant to this channel,love it.
Great video, thanks Stu. Looks a useful bit of kit. Thanks for reminding me to clean and lube my chain on my RE 350 Classic!👍
I am a relatively new subscriber, and one video was all the motivation needed. It is easy to comprehend that you cover a wide range of subjects and some will be important to those who choose four wheels. Your recent video on alternative fuels hooked me. If ever we accumulate a ride that uses a chain for the final drive this information is golden. We like time-saving devices that are not priced in the stratosphere. Please, stick with your winning formula for producing content. We will continue to enjoy your channel from our "secret retirement" location in Bulacan province on Luzon island in the Philippines.
Morning Stu. Another great video. That looks a pretty good piece of kit. I’m at Stafford this weekend, I’ll look out for one. I really enjoy your channel. It’s my go to place when I want inspiration. Good advice and no bull. 👍
Variety is the spice of life, Stuart, so keep varying the content. The speed luber looks interesting, though for me an even better arrangement was that on the Jawa 250/350 range. They had a fully-enclosed chain with a mist-oiler pipe from the back of the gearbox exiting above the sprocket. As a result the chain never needed oiling, was always clean and hardly ever needed adjusting. On the 350, I had to do that job just once in 15 years of ownership.
Agree. I have Jawa 634 and it' almost carefree. It's often called "drive shaft foor poor people" 🙂.
@@jankafka Agreed; Jawa engineering was simple, robust and very practical. I wish they were still available here in Australia and I'd even settle for the Indian-built Yedzi version of the 634, but they're not sold here either.
@Chris Weeks It's a pity. Here in Czech Republic Jawa still producing last two stroke model 350/640 and 350/640 Retro, which looks like 634. Then you can use new motorcycle as complete repair to old one, to make it road legal. Unfortunately there is not enough people buying them, so they cease to make them soon.
Thanks Stuart for the info for this product which is certainly worth a try. Also congratulations on the way the channel has progressed through the years; you’ve done really well and deserve it. 👍
I’m also in the please don’t change what ur doing yours is the only motorcycle based channel I watch regularly because i like to know whats coming to get me and your the only one thats willing to put ur neck on the block and tell us whats really going on rather than the sheep telling us what the boss wants them to tell us , keep it real pal
I enjoy your content, including the political stuff which as a car driver, non motorcyclist, I find your take and careful analysis on these issues interesting and helpful.
Brilliant Stu, brilliant.
The new word is Permacrisis Stu. Please don't stop your trademark village elder rambling. I tried using a wax chain lubricant for a while. I was amazed when I removed the front sprocket cover to see the front sprocket red with rust. Not the outer teeth but the centre and retaining bolt. I've gone back to gear oil. If I put enough on, it lubes everyone else's chain and it prevents any rust around the centre stand area. Cheers.
For me, the device looks "overengeneered". A piece of cardboard in a size that it stands by itself on the ground does a great job. So you can turn the wheel and lubricate the chain with no interruption. No need to clean up the device afterwards, just dispose the cardboard.
create unnecessary hazardous waste! good move!
Hi Uncle Stu .......... I'm voting with the people who are happy with the excellent video output you construct (with a lot of time and effort). I like to be aware of the political goings-on, even if I'm powerless to affect the outcomes, but it can inform me of a prudent course of action in choosing my own personal transport, both car and motorcycle I feel. The Speed Luber looks a useful tool. Thanks to you Stu and your adviser for bringing it to our notice : - } For those 'bikes where the Speed Luber won't quite fit in, my solution may help some readers. I made up a gizmo out of a couple of pieces of wood and a thin plastic kitchen work-surface protector(for preparing/chopping food ) . The wood base should be about 12" (30 cm) length about 5" (13 cm) wide and approx 1/2" + (1 cm) thick. dimensions aren't critical as you will see from my construction details following. I've used a piece of gravel-board such as goes along under a fence panel for the base of my gizmo . The second piece of wood = about the same length as the base piece . I've used what I think is called arriss-rail (don't know the correct spelling, my dictionaries don't help me)(it's a piece of triangular section wood such as is used as longitudanal support behind a fence panel. Doesn't need to be 'chunky, about 3" sides(7.5 cm will do). The triangular piece of wood has to be nailed or screwed to the base with one of the equilateral sides (i.e. not the hypotenuse side) flush (or relatively close, and parallel) with one of the long edges of the base piece. If you view the assembly end on, you see the rectangular section of the base, and standing up from it the triangular section of the arriss (?) rail with the hypotenuse edge sloping down to somewhere in the general area of the centre of the base-board. That hypotenuse face provides a support face on which you can nail a plastic cutting/chopping board (available in many UK supermarkets etc, usually in a multi-pack of about half a dozen)) the boards are only about 2 mm thick and can easily be cut with a pair of strong scissors. When the gizmo is stood on it's base the plastic sheet stands up at about 45 degrees and can be poked up behind the chain and acts as a protector for the wheel/tyre when spraying lube onto the chain. (I've nailed my plastic on with the narrower width of about 11`.5" (29cm) being the 'height). Spray that gets past the chain onto the plastic will gravitate down towards the wooden base's horizontal projection, and it's a relatively easy job to clean off when the job is completed. I've had my gizmo for quite a few years and it's had various bits trimmed off the plastic to clear brackets etc. during that time. It has been a blessing as I've not suffered the Silkolene fingers that Uncle Stu has encountered : - } Hope my attempts at trying to describe the gizmo's construction make some sort of sense !!!
Hi Stuart, my" precision device" is a plastic 4 pint milk pack cut and shaped so behind the chain is shielded from overspray and the excess is trapped in the lengthways base stopping any dripping on the ground. Cheap and cheerful. If I still had my old MZ though all this faff wouldn't apply.
I have found that getting lube on the tire, tends to make the sidewall crack prematurely. So I think this gadget, is a great idea. I usually spray the lube into a small container, and apply it with a tooth brush so that there is no overspray. Even so, it still flings off a bit.
The easiest way to do chain maintenance is buy a shaft drive bike 🙂 Keep up the good work Stuart and congrats on the 100k which won't be long.
Good timing on the start of a new riding season. Bike chains are often neglected and are epically important to keep maintained. Getting it done (however you go about it) is the key.
Your content is fine. The political points you bring up are informative and timely, along with being pertinent to your channels content. Those who don't like it are shortsighted, well, in much... The plastic doohickey is interesting and worth a try. Of course my sons say chains are antiquated just like my RE 350 and Triumph T120......and me. Keep up the good work!
Love every topic you have covered Stuart. Next up cable lubrication! I think all motorcycles have them so no suggestions to "just get a shaft drive" will be necessary. My favorite way to do cables is a sandwich bag with a rubber band and the lube. Let gravity do the job. Excellent topics all
Gear oil makes for a great chain lube. Just apply with a brush whilst spinning the wheel. Most owners manuals recommend engine oil as a chain lubricant anyway. I blend the oil with wb greasing to make it a bit thicker. If you use oil you'll never have to clean the chain too.
Yes think I will get one of these, still got bits of kitchen towel stuck to the patio from last time!
I am subscribed to many motorcycle channels.
The wide coverage of topics relating to the motorcycle "lifestyle" makes yours my favorite. o7 Salute!
Thanks for this over view Stuart.
Come along way from me using my mums gas stove to boil up my trials bike chains in a huge tin of Duckhams chain lube
I used to enjoy boiling up the tin of chain lube on the camping stove, soaking it, letting it hang until stiff, then after refitting the joy of the smoothest ride for a while, till it all flung off again ! Ah happy days, like cleaning the bike with Gunk and that lovely aroma afterwards. I cleaned the other day with something called Monkey Juice, just not the same !
The varied, useful and interesting content is driving your subscriptions up, your instinct for content is spot on, keep evolving.
For what it's worth I like the variety of subjects you cover within the context of bikes. Keep it up mate..
Been off the bike for 6 months due to back injury, life at the beach and very difficult to get on the ground with leg weakness. That tool looks perfect! I will bring my bike over and see how it works! 😂
The brush looks great and its been around for a long time. Might I suggest instead of the fiddly can holder a much taller piece of cardboard, still 6-7 " wide, strategically folded in an L shape, so it holds itself lightly against the tire, yet can slide(between tire and chain) while you either weight it with your foot so it stays in place, or a can of oil, etc., start the bike put it in first gear and while it spins, spray the lube using one hand to press the button and the other hand to aim the nozzle. Or if that worries you have a friend roll the wheel by hand. Been doing it this way for 35+ years and no problems at all. The can holder looks a nightmare to use!. Have recently changed to cleaning with 140 weight gear lube and a very soft old tooth brush then wiping it down real well with a shop towel as has been mentioned further back in earlier comments.
My favourite chain lube is to use really heavy gearbox oil. I keep some in a small margarine tub and apply it to the inside of chain with an old toothbrush. I hold the tub underneath where I'm working, to catch drips, but also catching most of the drips with the toothbrush by occasional brushing along the bottom of the chain and reapplying it to the side links. Only takes a minute or two. This heavy gear oil clings well, flinging no more than super sticky proprietary lube, but considerably cheaper, and, I find, the applications last much longer, as the molecular chain structure of the oil is designed to withstand heavy grinding between gear wheels.
Well done on the subs Stu, you will get there soon and have the 100k. I love the varied content as many channels get a bit samey after a while so keep up the great work 👍
Love your videos, really easy going and well paced.
And you have that art of narrating which makes even the simplest things really interesting.
Thank you.
Just had one of these delivered, bloody brilliant, works a treat.
Works better still if you're left-handed like me and turn the wheel with your right 😊
Cheers Stu 👍
Thats a good bit of kit for use at home or in a workshop to be honest..no mess and saves all the excess for use elsewhere.
Hi Stuart. Keep going on the way you have.
I've tried many devices to do this kind of thing, most of them are fiddly to use but generally work ok. However, these days I find lubing with a very heavy gear oil (EP140 or thicker) using a small brush is by far the most effective - of course there's a little more spatter when riding than some spray lubes, but I've found much better milage between adjustments etc (I suspect it's because grit doesn't stick to the lube as much). I usually only have to wipe the rim once after the first short ride around the block... I do apply the oil sparingly! Cost is also much lower... I do also have a very simple "Tutoro" chain oiler on my CB1100 - again very good once set up and reduces chain maintenance a great deal - this does require a but more rim cleaning from time to time 🙂
My bike doctor recommended the same: use heavy gear oil, as it's polymer chains are longer and designed to last longer under the crushing mechanics of a gearbox. I keep some in a margarine tub and apply it from the tub with an old toothbrush, working from the inside of the chain and then going on to brush the underside and the side plates. I too find it lasts longer than ordinary chain lube and is much less messy, only reapplying just before the chain goes dry. I also find with this regime that the necessity for chain adjustment is also less frequent, i.e. I presume there is less wear on the chain and sprockets due to the oil not being broken down so quickly.
Looks very handy, good find indeed 👍🏻
Stuart, your content is all relevant to motorcycling and nicely varied with a style all your own, so keep up the good work 👍
BTW, I've always thought it quite ridiculous that modern motorcycles have an oily, exposed chain in the first place.
There are shaft drives and belt drives and even 50 years ago, small bikes had enclosed chains to reduce maintenance, mess and wear. Other than maybe on race bikes, I don't see a need to have an open and oily chain these days, especially where (unlike a conventional bicycle), the motor does all the work and absorbs any minor efficiency losses in the power train.
However, I find having the right tools/products, along with a comfortable working area and enough time, can make any cleaning or servicing job quite relaxing and rewarding!
Hi Uncle Stu, well, I never thought I was going to buy this item when I woke up this morning, lol 😆 I've just ordered it. Hopefully, it works well with the interceptor . Always enjoy your videos. Please just keep doing what you're doing . Only thing I'm missing is I've not seen your royal enfield interceptor on for a while .
Handy bit of kit that Stu , well done on nearly achieving 100k subs well deserved 👍
I'm running a tutoro oiler on all my bikes. Quick wipe with a rag that is ready for the bin. 2 yellow dots. Wet dry weather. 👍👍
Thanks Stu, super video. I remember years and years ago fitting a Scott oiler to one of my bikes which worked brilliantly. Don't even know if they make 'em anymore. I guess I'll have to do some research as I'm taking delivery of my first new chain drive bike in over 50 yrs! Of course, an RE 350 Classic in chrome red.
I fitted a Scott Oiler to my Yamaha Exup 1000cc FZR and wearing sprockets and stretching chains were a thing of the past.
I am planning the same thing but we’ll see 10-4
@@richardwilson6392 You won't be disappointed Richard.
Scott oiler is now marketed under OSCO (One Second Chain Oiler)
@@johnrickards1908 🙂👍
Please feel free to continue to witter on about whatever the eff you like, Mr Fillingham. Nothing more reassuring than listening to a wise old sage of an ex-copper with dulcet tones, not unlike those of BBC radio fella Mark Radcliffe or Parky.
Just ordered one. I foresee messing with trimming a pop or water bottle to catch the blow back. Great content as always Stuart, thank you!
Just an update... this does NOT work for the RE Interceptor 650, at least not in any way I can figure out. The exhaust doesn't allow for it to be used anywhere. I ended up creating something similar out of a used, single-use water bottle that I'm quite impressed with.
Love the video Stu. My wife spins the wheel whilst I lube the chain even though she no longer rides her own bike or goes pillion.
Thats the best invention for motorcycling since the rotating turbo visor, in the 60s
Glad I've got a shaft drive...I used to hate cleaning drying lubing wipe off chains...especially when touring. 🏍️💨😎👍
Brilliant tool😎
I've been using the cardboard method forever, and it still works fine for me. That is, on bikes with centerstands. Most bikes in the U.S. don't have centerstands. I have two chain drive bikes with no centerstand. On one of them it's just a matter of putting a piece of 2x4 under the sidestand, then putting a small scissors jack under the right side of the bike and lifting the rear wheel off the ground. I have a small scissors jack that came with a car. It says Nissan on it. Works perfectly for the purpose. But the other one is far more of a challenge. The exhaust blocks access to the lower run of the chain. I have tried using a very small diameter section of rubber hose that fits over the end of the straw on the can, and is flexible enough to get down close to the chain, but it's almost impossible to see what you are doing. Also hard to get a piece of cardboard in there. I finally decided to just remove the chain guard and spray the lube on the top run of the chain.
I use Yamaha synthetic chain lube. It can be hard to find, because you usually have to buy it from a Yamaha dealer. It's also not cheap. Fortunately I have a Yamaha dealer just down the road from me. I have probably tried about 1000 brands of chain lube, and so far I like the Yamaha lube the best. Three brands of chain lube I definitely recommend staying away from are PJ1, Maxima Chain Wax, and Bel-Ray Super Clean Chain Lube. PJ1 is an absolute nightmare. It is the nastiest, stickiest stuff imaginable, which makes you think it wouldn't fling off, but it does. All over the bike. I had to use gasoline (petrol in the UK) to get it off. It took hours, as the whole back end of the bike was covered in it. I thought I was going to like the Maxima and Bel-Ray, but they actually ruined a couple of chains. Maxima Chain Wax is a brownish waxy substance, and Bel-Ray Super Clean Chain Lube goes on white. The problem is, you can't get them off, and they continue to build up on the chain. It reached the point where the chains were actually kinking, like they were rusted. Even after removing the chains and soaking them in gasoline for 24 hours, most of it still didn't come off, and the chain links were still stiff.
Brilliant video as always Stuart and I use a TuToRo chain oiler 😊👍🏻
So do I and it is a much better solution to the problem. It's also cheaper in the long run if you keep your bike for any length of time and you can remove it when you sell the bike. Why anyone would bother with that filthy nonsense is beyond me. You may just as well spray grinding paste on your chain.
It's after 10 pm here in California!!
Stu you're keeping us "colonists" awake.
I place the thinnest 1/8 inch thick plywood between the chain and wheel as a shield. I clean the chain with diesel fuel scrub wipe dry. Then in furtherance of sin I start the Interceptor put it in first gear and spray champion brand lithium chain lube on the chain. I really don't think I'll lose any fingers as there's the huge stock muffler keeping me quite safe from amputation

I've used Chainmate for a while - very impressed with it.
Keep doing what you're doing Stu. Good content.
Cleaver little gadget that mate.👍
Morning Stewart. Congratulations on your channel numbers. Incidenty nothing wrong in getting political ever now and again sir!
Your chain lub vid brought back happy memories for me, including huge bollocking I got from my mum. I bought a second hand 350cc Triumph Tiger, it was in a sorry state including the chain covered in rust. So as a young 17-year old off I went to old Triumph bike shop for some parts and advice. That's were I bought a tin of chain grease. Eventually I got the bike running, well of a sort. Then I followed the instruction on the tin. A kitchen sauspan, a low heat to melt the grease, and while I waited for it to melt, my wife to be held one end of this rusty chain as I held the other and attacked the rust with a wire brush. Then when the grease melted in went the chain into the sauspan. Oh the laughter as the chain fought me trying to wind it into the sauspan, but I got it all in. Did I notice the smell filling the house? Well of course not! Then mum came home. Talk about bleeding ears or wot! 😂😂😂
Still with my chain now cooling in the back garden, and every window in the house open I waited. About two hours later the chain looked well good as it sat back on the bike. But I did have to give money to my mum to buy a new sauspan! You'll be pleased to learn that my chain cleaning got better over the years and I bever stink the whole house out again doing motorcycle maintenance. That's because I closed the kitchen door in our own house 🤣🤣🤣.
Safe and enjoyable riding till next time Stewart 👍😁.
I scrub my chain in paraffin then use an old slow cooker kept and used in the garage with Duckhams chain grease permanently in it.
Hey presto old school lubed chain no house smell or bent ear
NBC mo
My method is 90 w gear oil in a ketchup bottle- the red plastic ones you see in restaurants, with a long tip. With my son turning the wheel, chain lubing is a pleasure.
Gear oil is great, I apply it using my wife’s toothbrush.
I use a "grease-ninja" and think it's wonderful, a block you connect to the lube can with two outlets either side of the plates but I'll give this a go too.
I've only recently gotten back into motoring (with my father's old Kawasaki ZZR 250). In all my teenage years of driving 50cc, 80cc, and even a 600cc bike... I am ashamed to admit I think I never ONCE lubed my chain! Terribly embarrassing... Keep up ALL of your content. Much appreciated!
I must have watched you almost from the beginning, tempest fugit. You've definitely got better IMHO and are my go-to channel for UK biking politics and lifestyle.
Loving the "living in the future" comment whilst working on one of the few bikes that still provides the joys of centrestand ownership! Progress eh?
I'm sure other manufacturers could find ways to incorporate such a device in a discreet manner if they really put their designers & CAD skills to the task.....
There is only one good chain that doesn't fling off. Try Wurth high performance dry chain lube, been using it for years 👍👍👍
Keep as you do Stuart, I just enjoy what you do 👌😎☕️ regards Fred ( Federico )
Pre ps your channel is great.
With regard to cleaning chains. When I bought my current (chained) bike 4 years ago, switching back from a shaft drive was a bit of an adjustment. I started the chain cleaning thing the very first time and decided it wasn't for me. So I have never cleaned my chain. Then the lube thing. I tried lubing the inside of the chain the first time and decided it wasn't for me. From that point on I lubed only the outside of the chain, back at the rear sprocket.
I drive a 1200 multistrada, it is a very powerful bike and certainly has the potential to wear a chain down as quick as any.
To repeat then - I have never cleaned my chain - not once - and I only lube the outside of the chain back at the rear sprocket. About once every 1,000 Km.
My chain is now more than 25,000 Km old and still going strong. I would judge it is probably going to do another 5,000 Km or so before it reaches limit of wear. Maybe more.
Just in case anyone is interested, I use motul C2 chain lube. I find it works well. And it takes me less than a minute to lube the chain, no trouble at all.
So, my take. Don't bother cleaning the chain, total waste of time. Lube the chain where it is easiest, the lube will get to where it needs to be anyway.
Still can't beat my old Yamaha TR1. Fully enclosed chain , no mess ,no fuss , lasts forever, nearly! I know it's not pretty but in my mind the benefits far outweigh the aesthetics. 42 years old and on it's second chain and sprockets! Enjoy your channel, including the political comment. My opinion, the only music needed on a bike ride is the music of the engine.
Come on Stu. You've got a spilt pin chain and you can STILL get Linklife! You know you want to.
Amazon must be busy, just ordered mine. Thanks Uncle Stu.
Or you could do what I do and use a large piece of cardboard that rests on the floor, and goes between the chain and the tyre 😮
Good that Stuart 👌
nice video I noticed you have a split link on your chain I took my bike for a mot yesterday it passed but I had an an advisory for having a split link which I was surprised at.
Good video Stu; as a proud Moto Guzzi owner, it's somewhat irrelevant to me but... it's a healthy reminder of the dismal greasy and gritty days of when I used to ride slightly less civilised machines!
i cut into shape a large gallon plastic container, sit on ground all excess goes in had it ten years now two holes ie splits allows chain to go through if it too low bit of wood no probs .six diff bikes all good
Nice product very slick.
Try bigger card stand on floor at side of tyre then laen gently on tyre wall as long as your not to vigorous it will not move with little time and patients.
Well, I have the cardboard in one hand (once I had an artistically cut small oil can made of plastic taped to suitable place but I lost it somewhere) , nowadays use chainlube (Motul C5 paste, not spray) in the other and sometimes I turn the rear wheel with my foot... Or ask my wife to turn the wheel... 😄
I use a piece of cardboard in a size that it stands by itself on the ground, start the bike, put it in first gear. Spray 5 seconds, done.
Take a plastic bowl and cut two opposing slots for the chain to pass through sit it on a brick and cleaning and lubing chains gets a lot cleaner. Thanks for any mc content. That exhaust does get in the way. Shame that chain cases became unfashionable. The old mz,s had a good system.
The classic 350 has a nice little space just as the chain enters the primary drive cover. just spray it in there:)
Right stu. If you like cleaning a chain I’m bringing 4 bikes up for you to clean. I absolutely hate chains. However I have sone some home nickle plating . That’s an interesting and easy way on making mildsteel bolts etc sparkle.
I have lubed my GT 535cc chain with it's used Engine oil . Used Engine oil put in small bottle 🍼 and lube chain ⛓️ 👌
There's a reason why your channel has exploded...Keep it up...
Awesome
I use silicone car spray, 2 quid at pound land. I also use it on all parts of my bike, excluding the obvious. It works. Crack on paying over the top for muck off etc.,
It also looks like a portable urinal. Good for camping and unisex by the look of it.
Thank you for introducing me to something I could really use! Now, if only Amazon had one to sell...(currently unavailable in the UK and not shown on my US app). I also enjoy your political commentary as it's relevant to the hobby/lifestyle.
I use just a big bit of cardboard. I put a fold in it where it meets the ground.
Put your foot on it, turn the wheel with one hand and spray with the other.
Total cost, one old box.
All sold out already! Your reach is Far and Wide!!
Hi Stu, great helpful video thank you. What chain cleaner do you use??
Uncle Stu variety is the spice of life
High Stuart, you need to get a longer piece of cardboard folded into a L shape so the short leg on the ground. And the long leg cut above the position on the chain, then you can spray the chain and spin the back wheel at the same time. So simple 👍👍👍
No he doesnt, He has this speed luber! why faff around with cardboard origami?
You're a common sense bloke
Common sense on motorcycles
Common sense on politics
Not sure why people would expect anything different 🙂
Lots of folks have started to use pledge furniture polish as it is basically a petroleum wax.
For road bikes it doesn't matter find job with the added bonus of lemon fresh oder lol
Used take the chain off stick into a tin of link life put on the cooker and stink the kitchen out
I just cut a 25l poly drum down to form a combined trough and splash back "wall".
Works a treat although I would still prefer manufacturers to stop fitting chain final drive !
Chain cleaning/lubing. I almost find myself doing the haka before I start!
That should help though 👍
Morning uncle Stu
Scottoiler for me to avoid the faff. Never even had to adjust the chain it 2.5 yrs.
Had an old 500 Daytona 1968 self lubin for a bike then
I figure that the overspray and the splattering excess lube provides a protective film. My tires are rust free! :)
