lube makes things work better. Metal on metal is rarely a good idea.

Aye, that's my thinking so far - enough to keep it sweet, but not to pick up dust and crap

The lube that new chains are supplied with will last for ages on a track bike.

It won't be on the road or outside. Will go with the factory chain lube for now and see how it goes, cheers.
