I bought the one I used on other bikes at a reasonable price on WeBike. The product arrived well and there is no doubt about its performance, so I will use it well

Chain replacement
Since the Front and Rear Sprocket were replaced, the Sprocket was also replaced.
I had been using D.I.D.'s VX, but this time I decided to go with the high-grade ZVM-X.
OEM is 114 LINK, but we purchased 120 LINK and will pack Piece.
Chain Cut & Crimp tool is used for press fitting and crimping.
Plate was measured and adjusted with Caliper.
The ZVM-X has a pin length of 21.1mm, while the VX we have been using has a pin length of 18.7mm.

Conversion of Zr-7 from 525 to 520
Conversion of Zr-7 from 525 to 520.
Daido's ZVM-XSeries was selected for its durability.
We raised the FrontSprocket by 1T, so we increased it by 2 LINKs from OEM to 108L.
Not surprisingly, it is narrower and weighs less than the 525.
It is a calm Gold color, so it looks more luxurious than flashy.

Gold chain looks good on a blackish vehicle.

Why did you choose this product?
The Chain installed in the vehicle has reached the point of replacement, so the Chain was replaced this time as a Conversion as well.
I was not particular about the ChainManufacturer, but I chose ChainManufacturer because it was the cheapest one that allowed engine displacement volume of Gold and liter SS.
Impressions after using it
My first impression is that it's not a White ChainGrease like other companies' Chains, so it looks beautiful!
The first grease on the Chain is white, so I always had to do the unpleasant part of dropping it or giving up and watching it turn completely black when installing.
DID's Chain is a light yellow-colored grease, so the ChainBody is not white and does not look dirty when installed.
This is one point where I felt it was a good thing to see.
As for the push/pull after installation, it is lighter because of the conversion and
I don't know if it is a characteristic of ChainGrease or ChainBody, but did the rolling resistance of the Motorcycle disappear? I felt it.
However, we did not test the same width Chain with the same vehicle, so it may be the Brush-Bo effect.
*There are individual differences in the way people feel.
▼ Attention
Since this will be a CrimpChain, please work with someone who is familiar with the CrimpTool for installation.

The new Chain is good.
This is the first time for me to change the chain. Because the previous chain was slack, it was beginning to make a clattering sound when starting.
It looks beautiful and I would like to maintain it by removing stains.

No Plating on Pin and Roller
I was looking for an anti-corrosion chain, and I found this product in the special sale, so I bought it. the plate part is gold plating, but the roller part and the pin part are not plating.
All the other company's products were Plating.
I don't think I would have bought it if I had known this.
I don't know about durability as it is just after replacement.
