Yes the Honda lube is an aerosol. The carrier for the lube is a great
cleaner. I put it on the chain warm and I get about zero fling. Yes
I've cleaned out the front cover it wasn't to bad no metal fragments
I can remember. Of course I'm pretty anal about keeping the chain
clean ( every 200-300miles) but I guess it pays off. I'm at about 6k
on the bike and although I regularly check the chain tension it's
never needed adjustment.
