Post some pics of your proud chainline and whats your fav brand? Regina, D.I.D, RK, EK?

here's some samples - but they can detract or draw too much attention when fiitted

there is metallic options that look more anodised than painted

is Gold on gold too much...

don't know the make of the oem chain, but mines still on my kr-1 after 23 years so it must be good

I much more prefer non-greasy chains to keep the misses in the kitchen

108 links for kr1 for 14/41

I was biased to use DID chain on my bikes because that's what came on my first bike KR-1
and the other brand you usually see on race bike fairings is RK
however EK have long done painted chains ... and their chains are slightly lighter because the bars between the links are drilled through

I started with a DID 520ERV3 but didnt get to rivetting it up... gold is bit bold

I like the metallic green although I think blue might be better

the black on gold looks mean like a new chainsaw
