    350x chains

    What's a good chain to run on my 350x for my final drive? I seen Renthal R3-2 520 O-ring chain but I didn't know of there were other good quality alternatives out there.

    .
    there are many good chains, but if you are cost conscious, a did 520 o ring chain is a great option . . they have been making chains longer than most anyone and they are made in japan . . dont buy one longer than you need because you will be spending extra money . . shop on google for the best price.

    the chain will wear quickly if your s[rockets are worn so i would check those also.

    with the chain wrapped around the rear sprocket, i would grab it at the very rear of the sprocket and pull it fairly hard away from the sprocket . . if you can pull it out around 1/4", the sprocket is likely pretty worn which will reduce chain life.

    Anything DID is what I run. Hasn't hurt me yet. Just take care of it and if it looks dirty, clean it and lube it.
