It was the perfect motorcycle chain lube. Or was it? Here we are, 10 years later and time and technology marches on. Rumor has...

Klotz makes a couple of different motorcycle chain lubes; ExtraTac is not our favorite. It sprays out as a rapidly expanding “foamy” cloud, which we think is very inefficient. It’s very difficult to direct a small precise amount where it will do the most good. Apparently, the idea is to...
