Installation Guide
Tools Required
- chain breaker tool
- socket set
- torque wrench
- chain lube
Pro Tips
- Use a chain breaker for precise link removal
- Check sprocket alignment with straight edge
- Apply grease to O-rings before assembly
- Torque to manufacturer specs: front 12-15 ft-lbs, rear 40-45 ft-lbs
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Incorrect chain routing
- Not aligning sprockets properly
- Over-torquing rear sprocket nuts
Comparison vs Stock/OEM
Aftermarket 520 X-ring chain vs OEM 520 O-ring; larger rear sprocket (typically +2 teeth) for better low-end torque
Improvements
- Higher torque capacity
- Reduced weight (steel vs aluminum OEM)
- Longer wear life with X-ring seals
- Better heat dissipation
Considerations
- Slightly lower top speed due to gearing change
- Requires re-checking chain tension after 100 miles
