Depending on the length of my rides I service my chains between 500 and 1000 miles. The first thing I did when I bought this bike was cleaned the factory wax off and lubed with Repsol chain lube. I use KEROSENE to clean which works great then I lube, I've been doing this for years with no probs. I found the wax's and other heavy lubes I've tried flung everywhere creating a mess including on the back of my jackets. For longevity keep them clean and you can use almost anything for lube.
