Frequently Asked Questions
The X-ring chain is factory pre-stretched; ride gently for first 100 miles to seat it properly.
Includes clip-style master link for easier install; rivet tool recommended for racing use.
Check the fitment tab on retailer sites or Vortex's official chart for exact compatibility.
Typically 1-up front/2-up rear for better low-end torque; confirm stock gearing for your model.
Installation Guide
Tools Required
- chain breaker tool
- socket set
- torque wrench
- chain lube
- master link pliers
Pro Tips
- Measure chain slack at tightest point per manual specs (usually 1-1.5 inches)

- Overlooking master link clip orientation
Comparison vs Stock/OEM
Aftermarket high-carbon steel sprockets and sealed X-ring chain vs. OEM roller chain
Improvements
- 25-30% higher tensile strength
- Reduced weight (lighter than stock in some cases)
- Better heat dissipation and low-stretch design
- Improved low-end torque with gearing change
Considerations
- Higher initial cost
- May require gearing adjustment for top speed
