Has anyone tried using non-bike-specific chain lube? E.g., motorcycle, chainsaw lube
Yes. When I was a kid I used my old man's motorbike chain lube.
Don't do it. It's much stickier to deal with faster chain and stains/sticks fuck out of everything.
Not sure about chainsaw lube but again faster chain speed so probably not best.
Some are stickier, some aren't. I use Rockoil motorcycle chainlube and it works really well.
