SizeConversion with a secure Brand

I love my car ZX12R, but I use it almost exclusively for Circuit.
530→520Conversion.

The 520 conversion was considered before the vehicle was purchased.
It is 520 in JSB nowadays, and 30 hours = 3,000 km. I thought it would not be a problem if the replacement is assumed to be for about 30 hours = 3,000 km.
I'm interested in reading the various impressions of the AxelOff→, it seems to reduce the impact of the "Gun!
I don't feel the don't-thrust as much as people say I do, my 12, but it's not entirely absent.
I wonder if it will be better if the inertia weight of the chain is reduced. I was hoping that it would be better if the inertia weight of the chain would be reduced.

In addition, the Final was shortened, so I don't think it is only thanks to the reduction in Chain weight, but the ease of riding is up.
Sometimes you can feel a don't-thrust, but it is not so problematic Level.
This is an example of how the lightness of the Chain not only leads to speed, but also contributes to ease of riding.

I felt confident that RK would be able to provide a sturdy Large size, even though it was a large size change.
In fact, I've been riding for about 20 hours and haven't had any problems yet.
I should have replaced it by now based on the recommended mileage, lol.
I haven't felt any Large problem in durability (about 2000km).
I think I'll change it this year.

I have changed dozens of Chains in my life and 80% of them are RK.
The trustworthiness of Manufacturer, but also the trustworthiness of myself is Number one.

The only thing I don't like is that it is Large strange to remove Grease applied to Large amount on new products.
I apply Engine oil to Dustcloth to remove it.
If there is an easier way to do this, I would like to know. View detail

nsr25 (mc21) to …

It's been almost 10 years since I replaced it with a Gold chain … I decided to change it as I thought it would be a good idea.
Gold chain was too expensive for my budget, so I used RankDown's Silver chain ….
RankDown, but it still feels good to be new! View detail

GOOD CHAIN

I like the black chain of the same color as the motorcycle and it is very good to make. Suzuki's basic chain is very rusty and is expected because it is coated View detail

Seal chain in 428 Size

[How is it used? Course and Enduro with CRF125F

Was the one you received as per Image? I used DID for the 520 Size, so I tried RK for the first time for the 428 Size. The color of Gold in RK is like a strong and flashy Gold with a yellowish tint.

Was the installation difficult? I chose the Clip type, so it's easy.

How was your experience with it? No problems, normal.

[Included Parts:were they on? Joint Attachment

[Was there anything that disappointed you? nothing special

Other items that would be helpful
Installation points and hang/Availability and clarity of the Instruction Manual/Points to consider/Items to purchase/Opinions and requests to the Manufacturer

I heard that the OEM non-seal chain of CRF125F would soon stretch, so I searched for a seal chain to replace it with a 428 size seal chain. I usually prefer DID, but I thought CRF125F does not need so expensive one, so I decided to choose RK's product because of their claim of RACINGChain. View detail

For forest roads

I bought it for driving on forest roads.
Since it is not a seal chain, the operating feel is light.
It is easy to handle because it can be washed entirely with kerosene.
If the chain lube is not put on properly, it makes a squeaky and Gold sound on the way back after driving about 100 km round trip.
I think the durability is high, and I think it's as durable as the Seal chain. View detail

RK Black and Gold Series 420 Chain for Honda Monkey 125

About quality and texture - Top quality. The finish of this black chain is just perfect with its electroplated coating and its gold coloured brass plated pins and rollers About the feeling of use - Very strong chain requiring very little adjustment in between minor scheduled servicing and the quality coating is keeping the rust away. Products to buy together - A chain cleaning brush is a must to added to your order to keep your new chain looking and performing it's best for very little money here on Webike. Difficulty of installation - I found the installation of the chain straight forward with no difficult aspects but lots of cleaning after removing the old chain, followed up by a chain adjustment after the new one was fitted. Cost performance and comparison with other products - The cost of this particular chain is higher then your average chain but is worth it if you consider the features it offers and the lower maintenance that follows. About shipping and packaging - I think Webike are doing their best with shipping pricing, so I'm happy. Packages ship within 24 hours and arrive very quickly from Japan. Any concerns, cautions, or advice when purchasing - When purchasing a new drive for your Honda Monkey 125 take into consideration that the OEM one is 420 x 98L with the OEM gearing of 15T x 34T.

To the stable Seal chain.

The OEMChain is non-seal, so it began to rust quickly and was replaced after 3,000 km.
Since the number of LINKs can be specified for removal and installation, it does not require a lot of work and kills, but ChainPliers are considered necessary.
I was torn between black and gold, but I chose gold for its overall balance, and I think it is well-balanced.
Driving impressions after the installation and removal of the Seal chain are said to be that the use of the Seal chain in a SmallEngine Displacement Volume vehicle causes driving resistance, but we could not feel any difference at all, perhaps due to the benefit of the ultra-thin Seal chain.

I bought this for my MONKEY125.

When we changed to OVER Long Swing Arm, we needed a longer chain for the 5cm extension.
It looks stiffer than the OEM's Non-seal Chain.
However, since the seal of the 420 Size is not an O-ring but a flimsy paper-like seal, it seems less durable than the seal chain used on a typical mid-size car.
It was helpful in terms of work efficiency that it was cut to the required number of LINKs from the beginning.
Incidentally, the Logo Sticker was included when I purchased it previously, but it does not appear to be included in the Cut version. View detail

Used in 520SizeConversion

[How is it used?
Model used:TS125R
Driving application:Off-road driving (Motocross play)
Period of use:About 2 years or so
Used for Conversion from OEMChain size428 to 520Size.

Was the one you received as per Image?
As per Image. felt Gold was more flashy than DID.

Was the installation difficult?
Since I did not have a Caulking Tool, I asked the Shop for one.
If there is a Caulking Tool, there is no problem as long as you have enough time and do not Crimp too much.

How was your experience with it?
With the OEM 428 Size, the clip joint was damaged when landing on a jump, and the 520 Size did not have such a problem, which increased the sense of security.
Also, compared to DID's Non-seal ChainERT2, the Chain width is not that much wider, as advertised. I felt it was as advertised.
Usability is installation vehicle model (D Tracker) Although the two products are different, we felt that this product had less Friction and the movement was Smooth compared to DID's VT2.
Plating in gold is also more flashy in this product, and if you like flashy, this one can be recommenedation.
Because it is a seal chain, there is not so much growth, and the maintenance cycle is not so large. (Refueling) The new system also eliminates the need to do this every time the car is driven, reducing the amount of time and effort required.
Conversion installation on TS125R was normal with no interference.

[Included Parts:were they on?
CrimpClip

[Was there anything that disappointed you?
None

Point and hang of installation
Chain replacement is a critical component, so if you are not confident about it, leave it to Shop.
If you are going to Challenge yourself to exchange
Chain Tool
grid-line (e.g. in spreadsheet)
Maintenance Stand

If there is a Large sturdy if you take your time and calm down. View detail

Best midsized EV chain

The gold color is always the best from RK. Still looks good and barley stretched with the torque of my 72volt Surron-x. New thinner u-ring and not a bulky regular o-ring. Electric motorcycles need a chain like this! View detail

I replaced it, hoping for durability.

I replaced the Normal chain.
It was not yet time to replace it, but I replaced it early in anticipation of its durability.
I've heard that RK's gold chain is double coated with plating.
I am hoping for an anti-corrosion effect.
Only a very small amount of oil needs to be added to protect the seal.
You can keep the Chain looking clean. View detail

Pin rusts

[How is it used?
The normal chain tends to rust and is a hassle to maintain, but most of the customized motorcycles use a plate chain, so I've been longing for...
I was wondering how long it would be before the OEM was ruined, so I replaced it as soon as possible.

Was the one you received as per Image?
Rust prevention? I'm not sure if it's to prevent rust or not, but the new one had a white grease like substance all over it that was quite large and strange to remove.

Was the installation difficult?
I didn't have the tools I needed, so I asked Shop to help me with Sprocket.

How was your experience with it?
The impression is quite different from NORMAL. (laughs).
The plated part of the chain is less likely to rust, so maintenance is not as time-consuming as with the NORMAL chain.

[Included Parts:were they on?
It came with two RK Stickers, so I attached them to the Swing Arm.

[Was there anything that disappointed you?
I heard that Plating chain is rust-free and easy to maintain, so I replaced the new OEM chain.
In the end, it was easier than NORMAL, but required regular cleaning and application of oil to prevent Rust. View detail
