Motorbike chains are different to ours as they have O rings keeping the original lube inside the rollers - and dirt, water and chainlube out. Motorbike chain lube is more to lubricate the roller / sprocket interface.
Personally I think a thinner chain oil is better on a cycle chain so it can seep into the rollers (no O rings).
I had not thought to compare bicycle chains with motorcycle chains. My old Triumph motorcycles has a chain oiler, some of the engine oil (20W50 during most of the year) dripped on to it. Thus, I never oiled it. And half a century ago, there were no O rings in chains.
I suspect that as the chain that was wrapped around the counter tooth sprocket inside the gear case at highway speed, any dirt that was not hanging onto the chain really tight got flung off of the chain at speed. I stopped driving motorcycles a decade and a half ago.
I used to use a petroleum based lube on my bicycle chain, ranged from 20W50 to 90W140 gear lube, but it was a dust magnet. I switched to a wax based lube about a decade ago, very happy with that.
First attached photo shows my big chainring at the end of a tour with a lot of accumulated dust and dirt, that was shortly before I quit using a petroleum based lube. The chain was on the middle chainring, thus hard to see the chain in the photo, but it is very clear how dirty the chain must have been for the big chainring to be that dirty.
I mostly ride my derailleur bikes, but I do not use a Chainglider on my Rohloff bike either. I have no complaint with dripping on some wax based lube on a regular basis.
Second and third photo from a year ago, a very dusty day on a gravel trail with my Nomad Mk II. I rode 90 miles that day for exercise, the attached photos were middle of the ride. The chain is clean enough in my opinion, a lot cleaner since I switched to the wax based lube.
I do not try to keep track of how many miles I get on a chain. I regularly ride four or five bikes a year.
