But, to each his own - it comes down to experience and what suits you best.
is there a thread on here how best to fit a scotoiler to a Ten? im not interested in chain oilers on road bikes but my Ten takes a battering,plus when i go away camping its off roaded for a few days in a row...plus a ride to and from the camp site, all with out much chain care.

on my Fazer ive used old engine oil for years, chain is in amazing condition! thats why i cant understand why people shell out on auto oilers. But..it doesnt go through all the nasty s**t that the Ten does
