    IMGP0315.jpg IMGP0290.jpg IMGP0354.jpg I don't trust my 520 chain even though its the world best. I change gear's back to stock. But use the bit heaver 525 for 15,000 miles on hard use. The 530 is way too much for reg use's. View attachment 34977 :ninja:

    None of those pics are actually relevant to the thread, but I enjoyed them nonetheless :)

    And what is going on with your steering head area?

    And where are the preload adjustment screws?

    That is a type of bar riser made by the company Genmar. Moves your bars up about 3/4".

    Bitches dig it!

    Thats my garage actually. A lot of the houses here in the northeast are quite old. The sub foundation here is rock laid dry. My quess is at some point someone filled it the rock with mortar. Maybe to help control moisture. That's an exterior wall that's partially underground.

    SOW,
    Please stop flashing your pussy in all your posts. Some people read this at work. At least shave it first, cuz that thing is bushy!

    What made you suddenly not trust your 520 uber chain? After you spammed us with 6 threads about buying,owning, and installing it. Whats your yearly average mileage?

    First of all, you need to rephrase your question. sow doesn't use the Gregorian calendar, his time revolves around the menstrual cycle of cats. Maybe ask average miles per litter?

    If you plan to rack up miles 530 is the way to go. my regina 17/43 kit lasted 39k miles. almost 2 years of service before the counter shaft sprocket started to hook.

    Also the info from gearing commander shows better chain life with 17/43 sprockets then the 16/43 kits

    Yeah, since the chain and sprockets will be rotating 6% slower, and the chain's bend around the front sprocket is more lax.
