Thanks buddy, I'll try that thenThis is one of those answers that it is "to each his own".
Not exactly sure what a "dry" chain lube is. That's an oxymoron.
I personally use Bel-Ray's Motorcycle lube. Reviews speak for themselves. To me, it works pretty good at penetrating the chain to get to the O rings and it goes on white so you can see what areas you hit. It also does a good job at sticking to the chain so as long you let it dry, you won't get much residue flying off. Have never had any chain issues.
ThanksI use DuPont Teflon Chain Saver:

Before that came out, I used DuPont Teflon Multi-Use Lubricant, which was recommended by a lot of dirt bike riders because it is a "dry" lubricant and won't hold on to dirt like other lubricants and waxes. I got ~25,000 miles out of the stock chain with it.
Oh, speaking of cleaning your chain... Motorx Chain Clean is the best stuff I have found to clean mine. It basically starts to "melt" the gunk off the instant you apply it.Whatever you decide CLEAN your chain FIRST, buy a grunge brush ($10-15)...worth every penny (No more tooth brushes lol) and get some chain degreaser. Then do Chain Lube or Wax

I've been using Motul chain clean and motul lube as well for a few years now. I'm sticking with it because it seems to have the least amount of fling. I like to apply the lube after a ride while the chain is warm and then let it sit overnight.I will be using Motul chain lube this year. I just purchased it so i cant say how it works just yet.
