Any difference between bicycle chain wax & motorcycle chain wax?

wouldn't be suprised if there was, but it's all i have at the moment. I'm guessing it'll be better than nothin (which is exactly what i have on there now )

Bicycle chains don't get hot like a motorcycle chain, and they waxes/lubes seem to be designed to be re-applied a lot more often.

The chain is turning over much, much faster on the motorcycle and you'll cover a lot more ground before you clean & relube the chain.

Also bicycle chains don't have O-rings like a motorcycle chain. That is probably only a factor for cleaners though.

If you've got it in your garage it's probably good enought to try though. I think I've used it before.

think that's all? makes alot of sense if they're different due to the heat involved

i can say that i used it & the chain is alot quieter now... but that's not sayin much.... putting just about anything on it woulda helped

i'll get a better look at it in the morning, i didn't have time to look at it after my ride into work or back home
