locogato11283 Posted January 22, 2013 Report Share Posted January 22, 2013 get a 530 chain. You're an idiot. You really should just stop posting. Stick with 520. Anything 8,000 pound tensile strength will be plenty. In most cases, there is no difference between the 530 and 520 tensile strengths. And the pin length on a 530 chain actually makes them more prone to breaking there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n2otoofast4u Posted January 22, 2013 Report Share Posted January 22, 2013 There are some REALLY high end, high dollar 520 chains out there that will hold pretty good power. But if the bike is heavy and you are running big tires you will wear them out pretty quick. The GOOD 530s are stronger but the chains are near 200 bucks and the sprockets are also more. At some point you will want to be realistic with your hp numbers and decide what is best for you. Another note is to be sure you run GOOD sprockets. Using junk sprockets that wear out will eat the chain faster. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rebelrock Posted January 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2013 Tyler what brand u recomend? I know u run some big motors! And im being pretty realistic far as numbers go a low number will be ruffly 150-155hp! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulie B Posted January 22, 2013 Report Share Posted January 22, 2013 The EK light weight chain is rated to 9400psi- I bet you can't break it. They drilled holes in it all along the outsid perimeter. It's also a non o-ring chain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What motor are you building that you're going to see 150 at the tires? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

n2otoofast4u Posted January 23, 2013 Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 520 or 530? And how big of motors? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
locogato11283 Posted January 23, 2013 Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 I need new chains, I this post actually applies to me.. I have been running DID 8,000 pound chains, but I may upgrade this year to something else.. What you think Green? You running 520 or 530 on the triple? Keep in mind, I am launching this thing uphill at 50+mph off 5' tall jumps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
