So been thinking of changing out chain. Any recomended chains? Bike is my daily driver so looking for reliable one.
Brand, length, type. Thanks in advance
Always used DID or RK , never had any problems with either .
.
If you have stock sprockets Your chain is a 420 x 100 link , if you buy a longer one (over 100 links) you need to shorten it using/buying a chain breaker or other method.
.
Non-O-rings (non-sealed) like Pic's 2 & 3 are cheaper and require a lot more maintenance and lube . every other ride
.
O-Ring chains like pic 4 will last 4 times longer and require a lot Less maintenance and lube . about every 500 miles
.
Non O-Ring or O-Ring ? Pic 5 & 6
.
maybe check the build threads see what they used
.
Ya ... even not racing , when your on a bike with 8,6 Hp every little bit counts double , triple !
.
I will go back to a standard non O-Ring chain when I feel i got my $ out of my O-Ring chain that I went with
Wow, that pretty much explained everything to me, thanks for all the info!
