I don't often use anything to clean the chain. If I'm going to spray anything liberally, it'll be chain lube. I find that if I spray a lot, it emulsifies a lot of the dirt anyway and it drips off or can be wiped off with a rag when I get the excess off. I use Honda's chain lube with graphite which is a little thinner than the Original Bike Spirits graphite version. I do use some Motorex cleaner maybe twice a year and then lightly spray some compressed air on the chain to do an air rinse and flash the solvents off before I put the lube on.
Bottom line: Heard a lot of plus and minuses about WD, so I just use a moto chain specific cleaner on a sparing basis.
