Title: Will this chain fit?
Post by: kamilb1998 on 02, February, 2013 - 15:18:30
I found this very cheap chain on eBay, can anyone confirm if it will fit Sinclair sprockets?

looking at the c5 tech spec ;

..................................it has the same pitch so should fit.

Not sure how these will compare, but on my Honda 750 I've found that some cheap chains are simply not worth having as they stretch and wear out so fast you end up spending more cash on constantly replacing them. Sometimes spending a bit more on a top quality chain works out cheaper in the long run.

If you're going to experiment on a cheapie let us know how you get on.

Hi there it's the correct chain but you will need 2 then you may find that it is to long or to short .

Will buy a couple and see what they're like. My (original) chain has started developing a lot of stiff link lately.

Ordered a couple of these chains today, will report later in the year about how I got on with them.
