Using chain spray in your FZS FI (assuming you are referring to a motorcycle) is generally a good practice for proper chain maintenance and lubrication. Chain spray helps reduce friction and wear on the chain, ensuring smooth operation and extending its lifespan.

Motorcycle chain sprays are formulated to withstand the unique demands of motorcycle chains, including high speeds, exposure to various weather conditions, and potential contact with dirt and debris. They typically contain special additives that provide superior lubrication and protection.

When using chain spray, follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer. Here are some general guidelines:

  1. Clean the chain: Before applying chain spray, make sure the chain is clean and free from dirt, grime, and old lubricant. You can use a chain cleaner or a soft brush to remove any debris.

  2. Apply chain spray: Position a suitable container or piece of cardboard beneath the chain to catch any overspray. Hold the chain spray can about 4-6 inches away from the chain and apply an even coat along the length of the chain while rotating the rear wheel. Be careful not to spray the tire or other sensitive parts of the bike.

  3. Let it dry: Allow the chain spray to dry for a few minutes or as instructed by the manufacturer. This will ensure that the lubricant adheres properly to the chain.

  4. Remove excess spray: After the spray has dried, use a clean cloth to wipe off any excess chain spray from the chain. This will help prevent accumulation of dirt and debris.

Remember to periodically inspect your chain and reapply chain spray as needed, especially after riding in wet or dusty conditions. Proper chain maintenance is essential for optimal performance, smooth operation, and longevity of your motorcycle's drivetrain.
