Chain size for '86 R is 520/96 right?

[Dammit!]

Did a search and didn't see it but just wanted to be sure before I order this thing.

Gracias.

96 is right for the stock gearing. I just ordered a new chain a few days ago too, a yellow one!

[Dammit!]

Yellow? Who makes those?

I'm looking at a D.I.D. X-ring (it's gold w00t!).

I think you heard wrong. :rolleyes: Have you tried one personaly??(probaly not) I have the same brand chain on now just a regular chain color and i have had no problems with it for over a year.

Parts unlimited chains are NOT just as good. They don't really have the best tensile strength.

I'd rather pay a premium for piece of mind. D.I.D. is the best out there in my opinion. Prices aren't terrible online.

I have been using DID X ring for four years on my CR's and love em. I just picked up a 520 96 link X ring for my R and about to put it on. It is gold outer and black on the inner links. Does anybody make a rear steel sprocket that looks exactly like the stock one but chrome?

[Dammit!]

I saw a stainless steel rear sprocket last night. Can't remember where it was but if that's something you're interested in I'll see if I can find it again.

Stainless would be cool, Dammit. Get your intake figured out before you waste time looking for sprockets for me. Thanks dude.
