Once I had removed the factory white grease, I always spray liberally with WD40 straight after a wash, then soak off the excess with toilet roll to reduce bodywork spray when riding. No rust in over a year. Dealer mechanic (25 yrs+ BMW) gave me this little insight, wasn't too sure at first, but it certainly works and is easy to apply. Get a can with the little red tube to direct the spray.What's the best chain cleaner Thx guys
Hi,
best is sometimes expensive, but best within price and availability is without question paraffin (kerosene) on rags or soft brush then left to dry.
it will not damage any O ring that I have come across in my path as an engineer.

The only issue I have had with the wurth stuff is someone from the dealership gave me a bit of a telling off for having a very dry chain last time the bike was in. They very kindly rectified their mis diagnosis by covering my chain with their bmw gunk, Ffs.
