    Would it be unfair to observe that a MotoGP chain is probably optimised for performance over life, a couple of races and in the bin, and so is exactly what we don't want.

    That sounds like a proper bit of wisdom there mate, appreciate it.

    So easy to get wrapped up in the marketing of this world, some times, IMO.

    Outrageous that…. Go to the back of the grid and don’t pass go! But do give £200….. 520 is a proper race chain:D Still I’m sure it’s worth an extra 2 BHP for any potential fool that thinks it’s a great enhancement! …. I’ve used RK and DID ERV3 520 race chains for as long as I can remember. Quality parts that will last just as long as OE if looked after:) Having 46 stamped on the link plates ain’t going to make you any faster…… converting to 520 chain and sprockets will have a far greater effect than most people think:)
