Chain Recommendation?

DID ZVM2 110 link

Usually order from White Buffalo Racing. See the vendor reviews section.

Traditionally, it's worth it to replace the front sprocket with the chain. The stock rear sprockets are made of some amazing ubermetal that never causes them to wear. I've seen 50k miles on a rear sprocket with almost no visible wear.

Yes, chains are good. whips and chains...... whooops wrong thread/section

DID 530 like Hobie said.

You can save a little $$ and use Tsubaki or RK but they don't seem to last as long.

So do you really save :icon_think:

18 K on my OEM and another 18K and going strong on my DID ZVM2. The ZVM2 hasn't needed a adjustment yet.

Remember that these use rivet master links. You will need the tool, or get someone to do it for you.

I bought a second link on my first chain replacement and YES I needed it.

Replace at least the front sprocket and take your time.

You will be surprised how quiet a new chain is.

Nah! They're crap. I've never used one but a voice in my head assures me that the ZVM2 is better, so it must be true.

Who would that be.... The Wizard ???

I try not to listen to short little fat guys that hide behind curtians.... maybe you shouldn't either.

Sorry, but the visual just popped in there, so I had to share it.
