Hey Guys,

I'm looking at replacing my chain and I'm wondering if anyone has anything good or bad to say about these.

CAN-AM DS450 ATV Offroad Trail Mud Regina Z-Ring Chain

or the

DID X-Ring O-Ring ATV Chain Can AM DS650/DS450

Any thoughts?

I just bought the Primary Drive Gold X-ring chain. I have used them before and they seemed pretty decent, but I don't do hardcore racing. Either one of the chains you listed should last longer than the stocker.

i tried rubber bands and barbed wire once...kept getting bushes and stuff stuck in it....went with the DID 520 chain...seems to work better

there are dyno sheets that show that the z-ring loses power (uses power) however , it will last longer ....
We buy the plain non - oring for the race bike , and simple o-ring on the practice bike
I do not like to "lose" any power!
I prefer to put it all to the ground .
