Here on STN itself is the final say on chain lubes
http://www.sport-touring.net/forums/index.php/topic,61009.0.html
BTW, the favored one is only carried by Lowes (the Home Depot runner-up) in my area,
but it is less expensive than going to a bike store.
DuPont Chian Saver
14oz aerosol cans can be had at McMaster Carr.

You can buy the aerosol and bulk liquid at Fastenal.

They also carry this at any Walmart that has a motorcycle/atv section - just search your local stores online. It is also cheaper there.

The local WallyMart doesn't carry much that's good. They did have 2 cans of the DuPont motorcycle degreaser on the clearance shelf and I bought them both.
I started using the bulk liquid after noticing how quickly I was going through the aerosol.

Yeah, I pulled up the stock from all the local Walmarts to verify they had them, then went and grabbed a few cans to stock up. it can be hit or miss without checking online first.

I know the Dupont Multi Wax doesn't look like much on the chain but it really works. You have to put it on a warm chain AFTER a ride then let it sit overnite. Also put on plenty. Your chain will last a long time and will not stretch. Also the stuff really does not pick up dirt which is great on an ADV bike too.
