Never heard of kerosene damaging O-rings, or anything else made of rubber. I've been using it to clean DID and RK chains, plus Renthal dirtbike chains, for years and I've never had an o-ring come apart. There was a time that DID's website recommended using kerosene to clean chains. If you look now, they show you pictures of how to clean your chain using DID chain cleaner. They're just trying to get you to buy their product.
A better question might be how many people on the CSC actually clean/maintain their chain before it starts to make noise?
I also use WD-40 and have been doing so the past 15 years that I have raced. No negative chain issues caused be WD-40 to date.
No doubt about the future, No regrets about the past!

Why? If I can get another 500 mi. on the cords, that more than justifies it.it may be beneficial to start a thread about when to change tires, ya know...before the cords are showing
