Come on Bill, the rings aren't pure rubber.
These aren't seals for a blender.
Here's what D.I.D. has to say,

question #7 - clean w/ kerosine. Last
time I checked that was a petroleum based
product, dare I say close to jet fuel (jp10
works great btw). It will not hurt your chain.
Just don't soak it for two days.
Yet another opinion on the topic.

Motorcyclist did an article a while back as well
on this topic, I'll have to dig it out. I know plenty of guys who have
20k+ on their chains and have only used wd40.
I'm no authority by any means, just a lowly engineer, but I what I do know is from plenty of street experience, reading plenty and asking around.
