Re: Chains must read
i sell them all the time and the ek zzz is the only one that you can get from parts unlimited or tucker rocky in 525 over 120 links, but the zzz is a bad *** chain though. i had it on my zx10 and it took tons of drag racing and hard clutching burnouts on the street. but 530 is way cheaper if its over 120 links.
You guys gotta look harder then one or two places, there are tons of different cheap chains out there
I run a $$70 shipped KMC chain on my f4i, 122 link 525 o-ring...

Re: Chains must read
You hate "ghetto rigs" but you stunt? hmmmmmm,so are you tellin me you don't have a single zip tie or jb weld holdin **** together on your bike,stuntin and riggin **** together just so you can finish a good session goes hand in hand
Also, myself and many others have run 2 chains linked with no problems,next time you should try it,you'll be happy with all the $ you saved.

Re: Chains must read
Another little trick we used to do when we only had one bike was to have 2 set up's. We had 2 rear carriers set up. One was a stock set of gear the other a lot set (same chain size) and we used to have a short set of X amount of links for the stunt set up. If you wanted to go for a nice long highway ride, all you had to do was change out the rear carrier with the stock sprocket and pull out the extra length of chain...

That sounds like a slick idea. I used to do a lot of highway riding when all my friends went. Wish I knew about that back then. Now my bike is strictly a lot bike
