CLS EVO, new automatic motorcycle chain greaser. Exclusive distributor: Nova Moto

Nova Moto was born in 2011 out of conviction: to bring a chain lubrication solution never seen before on the French motorcycle market, and to meet the real expectations of motorcyclists who are passionate about their machines, who ride – a lot – and like to keep their machines nice and clean.
Four years of experience in the field of motorcycle chain lubrication and customised lubrication also, makes Nova Moto beeing a reference in this field.
Revolutionary the CLS EVO, this new automatic chain lubricator? Yes, because this greaser guarantees that once fitted, you will do nothing more … for about 12,000 km. Not so bad, isn’t it?

Motorcycle chain lubrication by Nova Moto: make a boring operation a beauty and safety action for your motorcycle!

 

Greasing the chain is an obligation for the motorcyclist, impossible to cut it, and once you have tested everything, made the grease bombs do tens of thousands of kilometres, lived the painful moments of greasing in the early morning, because of course you forgot it the evening before! – especially when it’s wet! And that you have noticed the monstrous piles of dirt that stick to the grease, when they don’t end up being thrown from the gearbox output sprocket onto the tyre (lived!), you end up resolving to lubricate your motorcycle: « Well, how about an automatic greaser? »

And, in the process, you say to yourself – the biker thinks a lot under his helmet – « invest yes, but then, don’t touch it anymore or as little as possible, and above all be sure of its efficiency »!

It’s been nearly 25 years since the first automatic motorcycle chain lubricator appeared, yet today, these systems still have a few more or less annoying disadvantages.

– Disadvantages linked to the lubrication method: let’s start with what Nova Moto knows at its fingertips, CarbonForBikes graphite lubrication, which should not be stored in a wet machine at the risk of developing surface rust, certainly easy to remove as always described in the FAQs, at point 22, but annoying. Or oil lubricators, whose viscosity changes with heat, which means that the oil has to be adapted over the seasons to compensate for changes in oil flow on the chain.

– Disadvantages related to the technique of transferring lubrication to the chain: for CarbonForBikes, a slight noise when the block wears out, for others, operating by vacuum, the oil flow or even the air/fuel ratio can be altered.

CLS EVO is one of the latest developments in automatic motorcycle chain lubrication, and is therefore a highly successful product that tries to minimize all these difficulties for a peaceful ride on your motorcycle. After all, it’s all about the ride, isn’t it?

Nova Moto is pleased to present this UNIVERSAL concept (adapted to all motorcycles) of which it is now the exclusive distributor in France and French-speaking areas, with priority given to Switzerland, Belgium and Luxembourg.

Update 2020, Nova Moto supports as sales development partner on national and international level for CLS innovative accessories.

Now, let’s get to the key questions:

Assembly? : count 1 hour and 30 minutes minimum, then each one will adapt according to his level of requirement in terms of integration/discretion !

 

The CLS EVO difference?

This concept is a tailor-made solution for large daily or long-distance riders, made in Germany, electronic, and equipped with a pump designed and manufactured by its inventor near Nuremberg, which makes all the difference. Two versions will be distributed: a Touring version perfectly adapted to our use, even in sporty driving, up to 160 km/h, and a Sport version adapted to stabilised high-speed driving (it’s a German concept, don’t forget it!) with constant regulation of the oil flow according to needs.

Permanent chain lubrication extends chain life considerably:
– Limited wear and tear due to careful and permanent maintenance,
– Self-cleaning with constantly renewed lubricating oil
– Reduction of the chain heating phenomenon, which is the cause of its relaxation.
– Smoother operation with less shaking
– Up to 2kW more power

The operation of the robust, sealed kit, including the oil tank, pump and electronics, is completely independent of the position on the machine. A few simple rules to be observed are specified in the assembly tutorial, which is be available for download. This significantly helps for installation on motorcycles with little space, whether injection or carburetor motorcycles. The same applies to vehicles equipped with CAN BUS technology. In other words, you’ll keep the same kit when you change motorcycles!

 

Details / Operating of CLS EVO :

Tank:
100 ml (80-90 ml filling) for a autonomy of 12 000 km – it should be enough 😉
Flow rate :
About one drop / 5 minutes at 90 km/h
Control:
manual (by rotative button) or digital (display, which can also be coupled with the CLS heated grips, which are also revolutionary!), adjustment is possible at any time, e.g. when it rains.
Oil distribution:
Piston pump, neither the outside temperature nor the viscosity of the oil will affect the consistency and quality of the lubrication of your chain!
Oil CLS:
Non-toxic high performance oil
Trigger:
Automatic when the engine starts, stop when the ignition is switched off. Power consumption in stand by, 300microamps, 0.3 milliamps. No risk of discharging the battery!
Discretion:
Mounted behind the swingarm, the manufacturer even provides a sleeve / camouflage for the hose.
Cost effective:
Average consumption: 0.6 ml / 100 km. Delivered with 500 ml.
Safety :
The electronic control of CLS, and total engine shutdown avoids any omission and overdose. On the versions with display, regular information on the level of lubrication over the kilometres also avoids excess.
Cleanliness:
Of course a little less clean than graphite, which is just dust, yet the performance lies in the near one-button operation of the concept, which drastically limits the opportunity to get the rim and rear of the bike dirty. For example, this GS800 with aluminium rim, after 300 kilometres of road :

Here are two examples of assemblies:

On Nova Moto’s Z750 demo Z750, which traded in its CarbonForBikes solid automatic lubricator to perform the CLS EVO test. Note that the motorcycle went well beyond the 30,000 km of exclusive graphite lubrication without any sign of exhaustion, except for a little loss of green lacquer due to the friction with the greasing graphite block. For the CLS, it is literally forgotten, the digital control is very intuitive and the Z is equipped with the complete Touring CLS lubrication kit and heated grips – you can sometimes get lucky! – controlled by the same display.
