Best way is to have the bike on a stand, and spin the rear tire while constantly spraying on a sprocket (front or rear)

The other 'lazy' way which is what I usually do is just spray it where you can, move it forward a bit - spray a bit more and then go for a ride.

Haven't got one of those fancy stands, so I'll have to go with the wheel forward method...

Those stands, I'm guessing you need the bits that bolt on to the bike that the stand lifts it up on? What are they called and are they seperate or you get em with the stand?

Definitely get on it. It's mostly about lengthening the life of your chain and sprockets (and not having it overheat and snap on you), but it does make the bike ride quieter and smoother to ride too.

I usually spray it on the exposed part of the chain, wheel the bike forward a bit, spray again and repeat. There are little O-rings on each link that just going for a ride won't work the lube into, so it's good to spray the whole thing. Afterwards, either leave for a while to soak in / drip off, or you can wipe excess lube off with scot towels to reduce chain fling.

If your chain is particularly dirty looking you can degrease / kerosene it first, just be careful not to get this shit on your tyres and to wash it off with water, before putting the lube on.

You may notice it easier to wheel the bike after lubing; a good sign it was in need of one.

Is there a brand of chain lube that is the preferred lube in the bike world?

Any will do, as long as it says suitable for O ring chains...been using Shell's $10 chain lube for years. Recently bought Belring "chain wax" off eBay that's supposed to stick like shit to a shovel, people reckon it doesn't chain fling at all if you follow the instructions for applying.

Lol nah I Just hated them..

Nothing good came out of Chrysler

Eg crossfire, PR Cruiser, fkn Sebring

Yuck

personally I liked the Plymouth Prowler

just as it so different.

been picked up from airport in the last 300C hated it, shocking visibility, not much space in the back

G6E turbo was very nice.

Volvo V60 t5 was also very cool.

Lol then no improvement. Eclass chassis is poor IMO. Only e series I liked driving is the e63, for obvious reasons..

As said Ide be interested to test drive it

Lube that flings off from chain while riding. Gets on your wheels and rear fender. Much worse on cruisers, can end up on your back

When I was traveling lots for my old job my driver had a bmw 7 series, pretty comfy I sat in front and talked cars with the dude all the time - had a v8 but he never gave it the beans because the car was pretty f**ked (350,000 ks)
