b_a_n_s_h_e_e Posted December 10, 2003 Report Posted December 10, 2003 What is the best chain for dune riding, and drag racing. I am getting an extended swingarm, and need a new chain. Should I get a D.I.D.? An X-ring, O-ring? Help!!! Also, who makes the best chain sliders/roller combo kit? Thanks, -Troy Quote
Blue Duece Posted December 10, 2003 Report Posted December 10, 2003 i like the cheap oem chains they seem to be light and your bike coasts well with them, you replace them more often though, just my 2 cents Quote
b_a_n_s_h_e_e Posted December 10, 2003 Author Report Posted December 10, 2003 what about chain rollers/sliders? What is a good brand??? Is one better than another? Quote
Blue Duece Posted December 10, 2003 Report Posted December 10, 2003 i dont think one would work better than the other...just kinda keeps your chain in check, alot of guys go with the colored ones to match the bike.....im still using my stockers they seem to be in good shape...i use bearing grease on the forward roller and just clean the inside of the back one out when ever i have my chain off....you can find them on ebay or most aftermarket houses carry them.....nice looking bike by the way Quote
b_a_n_s_h_e_e Posted December 10, 2003 Author Report Posted December 10, 2003 Thanks...It's going to look even more cool after I get my Denton +2+1 A Arms, Works dual rate shocks w/rezzies, and +2 swing arm.. Quote
frocashmoney24 Posted December 10, 2003 Report Posted December 10, 2003 cant wait to see wat it looks like with your new goodies, as for a chain stick with a o-ring like D.I.D or renthal Quote
boonman Posted December 10, 2003 Report Posted December 10, 2003 If I was strictly running sand, I would go with a non oring. And didn't cascade have a nice slider setup? Quote
Justintoxicated Posted December 11, 2003 Report Posted December 11, 2003 my stock O-ring lasted a long time in the sand, but I just replaced it with a D.I.D. X ring since it supposed to seal better than a standard O-ring. Quote
raxen Posted December 11, 2003 Report Posted December 11, 2003 Upgrade your drivetrain to a 530 o Chain Quote
banshee tuner Posted December 14, 2003 Report Posted December 14, 2003 I run the d.i.d. x ring and love it. I have not had much luck with chain rollers and don't know anyone that has. My next step is a slider. Quote
MULLET~BOY Posted December 14, 2003 Report Posted December 14, 2003 how much douse it cost to go to a 530 chain set up i have always wonderd that Quote
Leadfoot350 Posted December 14, 2003 Report Posted December 14, 2003 Does the 530 weigh more? Also if you get a +6 swing arm or longer you will need a 130 link chain and those are hard to find. Regina makes a 130. You will need to buy two chains and link them together if not. A +6 takes 126 links just to let you know. Quote
