Frequently Asked Questions
The X-ring chain is high-quality and low-stretch, but always break in by riding easy for first 100 miles and check tension.
Includes a rivet style connecting link for maximum security.
Designed as complete kit; verify sprocket carrier compatibility if previously modified.
Typically 1 tooth larger rear sprocket than stock for low-end torque on these models.
Installation Guide
Tools Required
- chain breaker tool
- socket set
- torque wrench
- chain rivet tool or clip master link pliers
Pro Tips
- Use a chain breaker for precise link removal. Torque sprocket bolts to spec (usually 40-50 ft-lbs). Clean and lube chain after install. Check alignment with straight edge.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Incorrect chain routing
- Not tensioning properly
- Failing to lubricate new chain
Comparison vs Stock/OEM
Stock chains are O-ring or unsealed with smaller steel sprockets prone to wear
Improvements
- Better sealing with X-rings reduces friction and stretch
- Harder chromoly sprockets last 2-3x longer
- Optimized gearing for low-end torque
Considerations
- Slightly heavier than stock but negligible
