I fixed my clunky-shifting transmission
#8
I usually use DuPont Chainsaver on both my CBs and it works great. I have noticed that when I'm on trips and have to buy whatever chain lube I can find (usually a light silicone or teflon lube), I often end up with something that my chains don't like.

I haven't noticed problem with shifting, but when taking off from a dead stop, I can feel the chain clunking and it's noticeably noisier.

I've vowed to pick up some travel sized cans of Chainsaver in the future. One less thing to worry about when on the road.
