chains

Can anyone tell me if the 2004 fs/fe650 iwis cham chain is compatable with the 2005 model that has a different part number? i am guessing its a DiD but not sure. Price of 2005 is $51.70Aus less than half the 2004 iwis one. Also are they the same length so you can use in 2004 motor? :cheers...

Hi all, I have a new 2011 FE 570 with all of 200 some miles. Love the bike. Remapped, de-smogged, new tail light, header wrap, reflective tape, etc...and I still love the bike even after the tank reinstall. A little less love but still a keeper. This forum has been a great help. Anyway, I...

As i`am going to Praha this summer for holiday i have an illusion of that the best enduro chains i ever have used CZ would bee a little bit cheaper there than i Sweden. I have been searching in Google for MX shops there but have not found anything, just strange sites with suspect stuff for...

It's time for a new chain. The RK (I think the sealed O-ring chain) only lasted maybe 40 or 50 hrs it seems. And it is already stretched to 6" measurement with 9 pins between. I think new is 5.85. Anyway its junk. I went back to DID VM X-ring. 116 pins with a 15/48 gearing. Even so with the 116...

I can't seem to find the proper chain length for replacement on a FE650, I think its a 520 x 120 links. What is the best chain for desert use? I have been told that o rings aren't not worth the money but i find that hard to believe. Also is DID or Renthal the recommended chain?

Could any one tell me if you can shorten the 82 link timing chain ( part No. 200-045-03 ) by four links and make it fit the 1999 FE 501 that needs the 78 link chain ( Part No. 200-045-02). I don't know if the pitch of the chain will be the same that is my only concern. I ask this as I...

i've got an 02 470. don't have a bunch of seat time and other than changing oil, thats about it yesterday I noticed some noise that sounded like a cam chain slapping around. are these chain driven and do they require periodic adjustment?

This may have been covered previously, but... Has anyone ever looked into utilizing a Tsubaki HD cam chain on the Berg's? I'm still trying to track down some information on the specs. of the chains that are offered to see if there is an equivelent application available. ie. same pitch, and...
