However, there's a lot of difference if you use a lube that's really made for your bike. Even though they can both keep the bike from getting dry, the grease from the lubricant gives a smooth cycle.<br /><br />#Tanner@<a href="http://www.tulco.com/" rel="nofollow">Tulco.com</a> <br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02725008338163732011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3050916568736413860.post-72421385429216314692011-12-22T11:52:31.126-05:002011-12-22T11:52:31.126-05:00Thank you for all your comments.

I add it to the gas tank of my little 200cc motorcycle a few times a year, works great for that...:) I like the waxey lubricants when I know I'm going out for a long ride the night before and have time to let it dry T9 is by far my favorite of these. For daily use though I just use Tri Flow.Scotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02146673490894845643noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3050916568736413860.post-75921301733102339362011-12-22T01:33:41.472-05:002011-12-22T01:33:41.472-05:00I rarely ride in the rain (if I can help it).
