10g miles without cleaning

Thats interestting for sure. I have about 7500 on my chain...I've wiped it down once with wd-40. Lube it well every couple of thousand miles maybe, and ride hard. No clutch wheelies, just alot of rolling on the power. My chain looks like new and will go at least another 7500 miles easily. I think one of the main differences is I never ride in the rain or mud. My chain never really builds up any dirt to speak of, thats why the seldom wipe downs. And I've noticed a good lube will stay on a chain alot longer than you think. After several thousand miles I can still rub lube off on my finger. And the chains still quiet I had a friend that constantly lubed his chains, and he went through them twice as fast as me, plus they stretched like nobodies business. And they were always so wet from lube they collected grit like a bum collecting cans He went to lubing way less often and gets comparable life to mine now. I should probably lube and clean more, but I also think you can over-do itWow. I'm not the most religious about my chain maintenance but I still only get 11,000 miles out of a chain.
