Which Variant Should You Buy?

• Suitable for standard motorcycle chains.
• Suitable for O-ring chains.
• Suitable for X-ring chains.
• Suitable for Z-ring chains.
• Chlorine-free degreasing formula.
• Fast-evaporating cleaner.
• Designed for road and off-road motorcycle chains.
• Useful before applying fresh chain lubricant.

Motul article reference for the 400ml C1 product: 111648. Product codes can change by country/batch, so the supplied can should always be treated as the final reference.

Motul C2 Chain Lube Road 400ml

Motul C2 Chain Lube Road is a dedicated road-motorcycle chain lubricant formulated for standard and sealed chains. Motul specifically lists it for standard, O-ring, X-ring and Z-ring chains.

• Designed for road motorcycle chains.
• High adhesion helps the lubricant remain on the chain at speed.
• Helps reduce friction between moving chain components.
• Helps protect the chain during regular road use.
• Compatible with common sealed-chain types.
• Suitable for riders looking for a dedicated motorcycle chain spray rather than general-purpose oil.

Motul article reference for the 400ml C2 product: 111649. Product codes can vary by market/batch, so always verify the supplied can if an exact article number matters.

Why the C1 + C2 Combo Makes Sense

Chain lube works best on a properly cleaned chain. Spraying fresh lubricant over layers of old grease, road dust and dirt can trap contamination rather than properly servicing the chain. The cleaner-and-lube combination gives you both stages in one purchase:

1. Clean with Motul C1.
2. Allow the cleaner to work and evaporate.
3. Brush away stubborn deposits if required.
4. Apply Motul C2 Chain Lube Road to the clean chain.
5. Allow the lubricant time to settle before riding.

Motul also sells C1 and C2 together as an official chain-maintenance kit, confirming that the two products are intended to be used as a complementary cleaning-and-lubrication system.

Compatible Chain Types

Which Bikes Can Use It?

This is not a bike-model-specific product. It can be used on compatible chain-driven motorcycles where the chain manufacturer permits this type of chain cleaner/lubricant.

Typical applications include chain-driven motorcycles from Royal Enfield, KTM, Bajaj, Hero, Honda, Yamaha, TVS, Suzuki, Kawasaki, Triumph, Harley-Davidson and other brands. Always follow the motorcycle and chain manufacturer's maintenance instructions.

Ideal for Commuting, Touring & Performance Bikes

Chain maintenance is especially important on motorcycles exposed to:

• Daily city dust and road grime
• Rain and wet roads
• Long highway rides
• Touring luggage and sustained chain load
• Frequent stop-start riding
• High-speed road use

How to Use Motul C1 Chain Cleaner

1. Park the motorcycle securely with the engine switched off.
2. Never clean the chain with the engine running or by spinning the rear wheel under engine power.
3. Shake the aerosol can before use.
4. Spray C1 evenly on the chain.
5. Allow approximately 5 minutes for the cleaner to act, following Motul guidance.
6. For heavy contamination, use a suitable non-abrasive chain brush and repeat cleaning if needed.
7. Allow the chain to dry before applying lubricant.

How to Apply Motul C2 Chain Lube Road

1. Apply only after the chain is clean and dry.
2. Shake the aerosol before use.
3. Apply a controlled layer to the chain, concentrating on the roller/link area rather than overspraying the motorcycle.
4. Rotate the wheel manually and carefully to obtain even coverage.
5. Keep lubricant away from the brake disc, brake pads, tyre tread and other friction surfaces.
6. Allow the lubricant time to penetrate/set before riding.

Important Safety Notes

• Aerosol products should be used in a well-ventilated area.
• Keep away from open flames, sparks and other ignition sources.
• Do not spray on hot exhaust components.
• Never run the motorcycle in gear while your hands or a brush are near the chain.
• Avoid getting cleaner or lubricant on brake discs, brake pads or tyre tread.
• If overspray reaches a braking surface, clean the component correctly before riding.
• Keep out of reach of children and follow the warnings printed on the supplied aerosol can.

When Should You Clean and Lube Your Bike Chain?

There is no single perfect interval for every rider. Frequency depends on rain, dust, riding speed, chain type, motorcycle power and how heavily the chain is used. Motul's C1 technical guidance recommends repeating chain cleaning/maintenance around every 1,000 km, while difficult conditions can require earlier maintenance.

In practical use, inspect the chain regularly and service it sooner if it becomes dry, dirty, noisy or contaminated.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Is Motul C1 a chain cleaner or chain lubricant?
C1 is the cleaner/degreaser. It is used before lubrication.

2. Is Motul C2 a cleaner?
No. C2 Chain Lube Road is the lubricant used after the chain has been cleaned and dried.

3. Which one should I buy?
Choose C1 if you only need cleaner, C2 if you only need lubricant, or the C1 + C2 combo for complete maintenance.

4. Is the combo two full-size cans?
Yes. The combo variant in this listing contains one 400ml C1 cleaner and one 400ml C2 lube, total 800ml.

5. Is Motul C1 safe for O-ring chains?
Yes. Motul lists C1 as suitable for O-ring, X-ring and Z-ring chains.

6. Is Motul C2 safe for O-ring chains?
Yes. Motul lists C2 Chain Lube Road for standard, O-ring, X-ring and Z-ring chains.

7. Can I use it on Royal Enfield bikes?
Yes, on compatible chain-driven Royal Enfield motorcycles. It is not model-specific.

8. Can I use it on KTM, Bajaj, Hero, Honda, Yamaha or TVS?
Yes, where the motorcycle uses a compatible drive chain and the chain manufacturer permits aerosol chain cleaner/lube.

9. Do I need to clean the chain every time before lubing?
If the chain is heavily dirty or has old sticky residue, cleaning first is the better maintenance process. A relatively clean chain may not need aggressive cleaning before every small lubrication top-up.

10. Can I spray C2 directly over mud and old grease?
That is not recommended for proper maintenance. Remove contamination first so fresh lubricant can reach the chain properly.

11. Can I clean the chain with the motorcycle running on a paddock stand?
No. Keep the engine switched off and rotate the wheel manually. Hands, brushes and clothing near a powered chain are extremely dangerous.

12. Can chain lube go on the brake disc?
No. Keep lubricant and cleaner away from brake friction surfaces and tyre tread.

13. Is C2 suitable for off-road chains?
C2 is primarily Motul's road-chain lubricant. Motul has separate off-road chain-lube products for dedicated off-road use.

14. Is this genuine Motul?
This listing is for Motul-branded C1/C2 products. Packaging, article numbers and label design can change with manufacturing batch and market.

15. Does the combo include a brush?
No brush is included unless explicitly stated. This listing's combo is the C1 400ml + C2 400ml product combination.
