If I ever need 100 Ft of Chain, $2006 sounds like a bargain...Johnj wrote:Check here for prices on chain.

Well, if you go to the dealer, expect to pay more. Sounds like they're quoting an O-ring chain (they'd better be at that price). Not standard for your bike, but a huge improvement over the standard chain that was originally fitted.jk333 wrote:its oem Honda from the dealer or another shop. its 530 by 106 links. my other chain was rusted like crazy and realy loose.
Poke around the web. You can find a standard 530 chain for your bike for around $70. An O-ring chain is around $100. I'd highly recommend the extra bucks for the O-ring. It needs less lube, less adjusting and will last twice as long as a standard chain. I bought my last standard chain about 15 yrs. ago.
