Somebody remind me..... What is the advantages of moving away from the OEM 530 chain? If it is performance, it better be a LOT of performance...... A weaker chain that won't last as long and needs mods to avoid doing damage to the swingarm.... huh?
A 520 chain will be about 2 pounds lighter than a 530. For track use a 520 makes sense as it reduces rotational mass and could make that 0.01 second per lap difference. That's no joke because 0.01 seconds for 30 laps is a measurable 0.3 second difference.
For street use, worthless.
