Common questions
What is the advantage of a non-sealed chain for drag racing?
Non-sealed chains reduce rotating mass and eliminate the friction from O-rings, which results in more efficient power transfer and quicker acceleration, critical for drag strip performance.
Is this chain recommended for street use on my V-twin?
No, this non-sealed chain is specifically designed for drag racing and competition. It will require more frequent maintenance and is not ideal for the varied conditions of street riding.
How do I ensure the 170-link length is correct for my setup?
The appropriate chain length depends on your specific motorcycle model, swingarm, and sprocket configuration. It's best to measure your current chain or consult a fitment guide to confirm the correct length.
