I'll use it in Circuit.
Purchased because it can be used with 250 in Circuit, regardless of 4-stroke or 2-stroke
Introduced on a 2-stroke 250.
It is noticeably thinner and lighter than the NORMAL STREETChain.
I am looking forward to seeing the difference in the actual driving experience.

MONKEY125 is converted to Seal chain.
OEM rusts quickly, so I bought an affordable HonChain.
MONKEY125 fits at 98L
I am very satisfied with the gold texture and the black monkey is now more austere and large.
I don't mind the friction at all, and there are no performance issues.
It is also a recommendation for custom beginners!

Super Silver Chain from RK Takasago Chain
* About quality and texture, The silver finish on the chain links looks outstanding especially next to the other silver highlighted parts on the Grom and the nickel silver plating process gives it a lasting shine, while the hard steel pins, solid bushings and rollers ensrue a smooth operation. * About the feeling of use, Would have to be the best looking RK chain I have used on the Grom to date, the previous standard series chain was cheaper in price but was unimpressive to look at when compared to the finish of this chain. * Products to buy together, A drive and driven sprocket, always advisable to replace these 3 parts together. I can recommend the Kitaco 420 pitch sprockets as that is what I have has had success using. * Difficulty of installation, For removal of just the chain there will be enough slack in the chain to remove the joining clip and old chain but installation will also require removal of the front sprocket cover and a chain adjusted once the new joining clip is secured. The process was completed in 20 minutes with no difficultly. * Cost performance and comparison with other products, There are many chain options for the Grom but for a non-sealed 420 pitch chain that look this outstanding fitted against the black swingarm, there is no competition with the pricing of this RK chain. * About shipping and packaging, I am happy to wait 6 weeks on average for my parts to arrive in Sydney Australia via Webike's sea freight which comes with tracking and insurance so I know I'm covered in case something was to go wrong but with there outstanding bubble wrapping and boxing there have been no problems. * Any concerns, cautions, or advice when purchasing, You may prefer a sealed chain and consider it a better option but for a motorcycle with a small capacity engine I prefer to not lose any power due to the frication created by the O-rings. Use the product reviews to assist in making a decision on your purchase. View detail

BlackChain and Sprocket
R-XWSeries is compatible for use with REBEL250, but I installed X-XWSeriesChain for LargeEngine Displacement Volume vehicle grade. Upgrading is OK, and vice versa×.
I have been using RKChain's R-XW and replaced it with X-XW. Naturally, I don't notice any difference in performance when riding around town for commuting. It is almost a choice of appearance. The R-XWChain was replaced at 16,000km, and although the Chain itself was not stretched or loose, the teeth of the Rear sprocket were getting thinner, so I replaced both the Chain and Sprocket.
I considered DID's BlackChain, but RK has a better surface treatment up to the reverse side, and the gold color of the pin matches Sprocket's Champagne gold color. Therefore, we chose RKChain again. (I heard that DID's BlackChain has only the surface coated in black, and the reverse side has only the rustproofing treatment.)
The Sprocket I replaced is also SUNSTAR front and rear, OEM configuration (since I didn't feel the need to change the configuration), Rear is Champagne gold color RH-129-36. The RKChain Package photo is different from the one shown on the website. RKChain's Package photo was different from the one shown on the website. The replacement work was done by Motorcycle shop. The price was 11,880 yen for front and rear Sprocket and Chain replacement.

Gold color is good!
We originally planned to replace it with RK's lightweight Type Chain, but since it was out of stock, we replaced it with R-XWType Chain.
Needless to say, the quintessential JapanBrand quality is well done.
This time, I replaced OEM Chain, and I don't feel any discomfort due to the weight change, but compared to the lightweight Chain, it is probably about 150g heavier. However, it might be 150g heavier than the lightweight type chain, so there might be some differences in the weight of the lightweight body such as SEROW250.

Black & Gold looks great!
The black of the Sprocket and the black and gold of the Chain look very parenthesis! I have been using it for 3 years and it is very durable and has not loosened even after repeated stop and go on the circuit. View detail

CROSSCUB CUSTOM
After much thought about customizing the CROSS CUB Chain Cover, we decided to make the Swing Arm the same color as the Body and install the CT110 HUNTER CUB Chain Cover.
I don't even do Tandem, so I removed the footpeg and cleaned it up.
The chain is visible, so we replaced it with a prominent gold one, and the spot rocket with a KITACO one, because we heard that the NORMAL one rusts quickly.
Chain maintenance has also become easier, and the Rear area has become more resilient.
I ordered 102 Piece.
I gave it an overall rating of 4 stars because I think it may have been a shipping error.

The Beauty of Silver
How was your experience with it?
The sound of the Chain while running is now lighter.
It is comfortable.
Fuel economy has also improved slightly.
There was not much initial Chain growth.
I hear they are durable, but I just replaced them so I can't rate them.
How did it compare to other products?
We replaced the OEM installed product because after 12,000 km it started to move poorly and make unpleasant noises while driving.
I am told that this Chain is very durable, so I would be happy if it can be used for more than 12,000 km.
The silver shine is beautiful.
[Points to note]
You will want to maintain the shine of Silver, so you will spend more time polishing Chain.

High performance + beauty
This is the third time I have used this Chain.
I like the fact that the appearance does not change over time, as well as the performance.
The Chain area is where dirt is most noticeable, so the black color is very much appreciated.
One could say that it is Black that can be cleaned with a light wipe down.
It is durable, well priced, and easy to use.
When in doubt, go for this one! If in doubt, this is the one!

To MONKEY125.
The OEM Chain of MONKEY125 is very easy to stretch, and it is troublesome to adjust every time, so we replaced it with this Chain. I asked the shop to install the Black Chain, and I feel the chassis is tighter. Also, it is rust proof and maintenance is less frequent, so I think it is a very cost effective product. View detail

First RKChain installed!
[How is it used?
Weekend Touring Main
Was the one you received as per Image?
It was shinier than the Image.
Was the installation difficult?
Shop Request
How was your experience with it?
It was a replacement from OEM Chain, but the noise when driving was dramatically reduced, smoothness at startup, throttle response, and ease of entry into the gear were improved, and above all, I was surprised that there was little resistance and no unnecessary deceleration when the Axel was off at idle speed.
[Included Parts:were they on?
nothing special
[Was there anything that disappointed you?
nothing special
There are many ChainManufacturers, but I don't know what the differences are between them. I decided on the price and delivery time after comparing with DID, but I would like to know if there is any definite difference between them. I would like to know if there is any definite difference between ChainManufacturer and DID.
