sidewinder chaincase lube

[ClutchMaster]

I need to meet you someday. LOL.

What about Avacado oil? That's what I prefer

Ahhh
Se señor

Avocado oil & Olive oil are high in Omega 6 which is good for you, but breakdown in heat creating dangerous compounds.
Algae oil is high in Omega 9 which is not only good for you, but is very heat stable.
Contrary to popular belief, Omega 3 is NOT produced from fish, but the Algae they eat.
Avocado oil is also very expensive.

P.S: I do NOT recommend any of these oils for your chain case, but if you eat healthy during the week, you can afford a Hot Dog at every stop.

I only use Super Beta Prostate Advanced in the chaincase, as my bottle was free. (Just pay shipping and handling.)

This is what Excell told me to use. I have NEVER EVER heard of a Polaris chaincase failure! lol

It looks interesting. I'll read up on it when i stop by my Polaris dealer.
Listen up y'all. Any chain case lube will do the trick, no matter who makes it. They all design them for this particular function.
If you decide to go to gear oils & others, they will most likely work just as well.
Just like i said in the second post of this topic, EVERYBODY will chime in with their special potion.

FUN FACTS:
When Nascar teams need an extra half second off their qualifying lap to make the race, they DRAIN the rear end oil, as in NONE!
Joe Gibbs Racing Gear Oil was very thin. How much speed can be gained from lighter chain lube? Who knows.
I put more miles on in 2 days then they do a race, but it does show there are gains with lighter oil.

Just food for thought.

Certainly no fan of poo here, but he sells both, and they have the fastest sidewinder at the Old Forge shootout, so I just use what he said. Plus, its super pretty in the window...blue color!! LOL

Same goes for motor oils!

Klotz chain case lube never had any issues.

X2. Great product. I call it black slime.

or urban dictionary says slime > Like a cool #*$&@ person, it's like another word for homie.

I was wondering if anyone was using amsoil severe gear 75-90 synthetic oil on their sidewinders? if not then what is the best chaincase lube to use? Thanks mike

I ran it last season and it worked good.

75/90 royal purple

Has anybody used an infrared gun to check the temperature of the lower chaincase after a hard ride? I honestly think with the oil tank attached up top and the muffler in front of the chaincase in the airflow direction that heat is going to be the biggest problem not oil flow at cold startup. I personally have great luck with a soil severe gear.

 

[Turboflash]

I think you're right. Since chain case is mounted to oil tank, I would guess it's pretty much the same temp as the engine oil. They both get heated by the muffler which is right in front of them. That was my theory too so I tried to do what I could to reduce heat from muffler by installing reflective heat insulation on the oil tank and chain case tank, mag end of engine, oil lines, etc (see pic). Can't do anything about hot oil coming back from motor (well, I suppose a creative guy could install an auxiliary oil cooler). But, you don't want the oils to be too cold either. Ideal temps for engine oil sumps is around 200-220F. No worries, today's synthetic chain case oils can easily stand 200F.

I cant say the same.....

Then again, there's this, on the chain case side! (which does suck for anyone!)
