mine says to clean and lube every 600 miles.
i just lube it.
i rarely go off-road when im parking at the canyons and i don't see any debris on the chain when i lube it.
do you guys clean your chain regularly? is lubing it enough if there's no mud or any debris on the chain?
chain maintenance?

i would clean and lube mine every week, cant hurt so why not. As for not cleaing it, simply because it looks clean doesnt mean it is clean, if your manuel says to clean it, clean it.
