Regina chain

[AllanB]

What he said. I had 32,000 kms on my Hornet 900 when I trade it - original sprockets and chain all in fine condition - regular cleaning, oiling and correct tension. Reckon I would have easily got 50,000 out of them before even considering a change.

I am used to 60-70,000. But then I am a fussy bitch with the chain.
At 54k on the stock chain but i am not sure how it was treated by the previous fellow beyond it was a little tight.
Probably another 10 in it but I'd rather change it while it is not a rush being the main mode of transport.

I need to buy a new chain breaker. Any recommendations on an economical one?
Can't afford to spend over $100 but don't want to buy a single use one that breaks on me first try either.

Ive got a DRC alloy jobby that works just fine, and you can get new heads for them. About $80 from memory.

Got me one of these: http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/moto...1011563344.htm

Worked well the one time I have used it so far.
Only took a few days to get here too.

I bought one of those for my father in law a few years ago. Used it a couple of times. But then he and it moved to Wales.
Nice kit to use.

If you just want the sucker off the angle grinder works just fine. If you intend to put a new 'endless' chain on yourself you'll need a decent method of punching the pins. The more expensive breakers are often a combo breaker/fitter

All you need is a solid surface and a ball pein hammer

maybe if you've got tool skills, but a lot of people haven't so need a helping hand with a presicion tool.

Is it me or does the word 'Regina' really sound like it should be describing a part of a womans body?

Agreed man! Very easy to bend the sprocket if you do not. This place can be dangerous with suggestions
