Chain Help

[tonypaz]

I picked up my first FZR. I have been puting it back together and the only thing that im missing is a chain. The chain that came with it doesnt fit. Can anyone help me with where to go to get a cheap chain to be used on mine FZR. Or if anyone has an extra one that they are willing to sell, I would greatly appreciate it.

The cheapest O-ring chains I have seen were on Ebay... around $60 I think. I know that Western Power Sports has some decent heavy duty O-ring chains in the $100 range... unfortunately there isn't really a such thing as a cheap O ring chain. Roller chains are really cheap, but I wouldn't put one on an FZR. They wont last nearly as long, and from my personal inspections ( I work at a cycle shop ) the links on O ring chains are thicker which would lead me to believe they are stronger as well.

Hi,
No matter what chain you fit it will wear QUICKER unless mounted on new sprockets as well. putting a new chain on old sprockets is just VERY false economy.
