A maintenance free chain would be nice but what's the price. Far more than a conventional chain I'll wager.
My last shaft drive bike was a Guzzi with the CARC system and it was a pain; leaking gear oil without warning. After cleaning and inspection it might be fine for a month and then happen again. Modern chains are so good, needing little adjustment and just an occasional clean and lube. Durable, simple and reliable.
