To determine whether and to what degree the solid lubricant affected the motorcycle’s chain temperature, the temperature of the Suzuki V-Strom’s chain was measured during a 250 km highway trip by means of a 2d-datarecording system. The values were then compared to the results of the previous reference measurement carried out on a conventionally lubricated chain.

The result:

In comparison to the chain temperature with conventional lubrication, the temperature at the lugs and rollers was consistently lower with solid lubricant.
