Motorcycle chain oil should not be replaced with cooking oil. Although cooking oil has some lubricating ability, it is far inferior to that of engine oil. For ordinary motorcycle transmission chains, using engine oil or waste engine oil for lubrication is sufficient. Even waste engine oil provides better lubrication than cooking oil, so it is not advisable to use cooking oil to lubricate motorcycle chains. Using engine oil to lubricate motorcycle chains: Engine oil is the lubricant used in engines, composed of base oil and additives. It serves multiple functions such as lubrication and wear reduction, auxiliary cooling, sealing and leak prevention, rust and corrosion protection, and shock absorption. Base oil is the main component of lubricants: It determines the fundamental properties of the lubricant. Additives, on the other hand, compensate for and improve the shortcomings of the base oil, imparting new properties and making them an essential part of the lubricant.
