Drive chain

[puertorro]

Why many people recommend to replace the drive chain of the hayabusa? and how much is the tensile strenght of the original drive chain? (RK GB50GSV Z3)

Thank´s to every one.

the big 4 (hon,Kaw,Yam,an'Zook)...only buy from DID and RK... most of their chain rated for 1300 cc's has about 10,000 pound tensil strength.

there a few with 10,500 +

The RK that you have on there is fairly new.


I'm not sure I get yer first Q thou...

replace it when its toast.

I didn't think there was anything wrong with the stock chain. Like RSD said replace it when its stretched to hell.

Thank you very much for your answers I will keep using the drive chain until it last.

The OEM Rk chain is T.S. of 10,260 it is special due to the plates are drilled for light wieght.
The ONLY chain I install on Busas are as follows
EK530zvx
EK530zzz
EK530DRZ (non oring drag chain)
