And for those of you that think asking questions about "origin" is an insuelt...

This guy is trying to sell a china made engine but listing it as a Blata

Wow this thread has gotten huge!

The link Gadgit has posted is exactly what I'm talking about! You can never be too careful.

In future I would ask "Are you sure this chain is made in Japan" or something of the sort.

I wasn't meaning to accuse the man of lying but in hindsight I can see how he would of thought so.

Urgh

If I was asked a lame question like this I would have this answer:

"Are you sure you own a motorcycle because I think you'd have to be too friggin dense to be able to ride one?!?!?!! Cheers!"

Thats the sort of treatment your likely to get back considering your being a wanker in the first place. Why don't you just feck off and buy it from a ship so you can see that its real? Your lack of trust in others will only cause problems with the way your going about it...

Edit: interesting the abusive rep I recieved from aero, turns out he has quite an attitude problem afterall. Maybe he will grow up one day. Well heres hoping...

Aero, does your original chain have anything stamped on it?

I know the 'Daytonas' like my own have RC25/ASA25 chain, (1/4inch pitch, american standard chain).

It should be RC25/ASA25 or RC35/ASA35 (3/8 pitch chain)..

If it doesnt have anything stamped on it, measure the roller diameter, the distance between the centres of each pin and the distance between the inside plates. And let me know.

NB. Just because its Chinese doesnt necessarly mean its of bad quality.
Most brands sold in NZ are made to an ISO standard (metal strength, load ratings etc).

PM me if you want help, I used to sell the shit and can still get it cheap.

I would go for OCM, Diamond (if your feeling rich) or SKF chain.

There is also KHK chain, which is chinese but is of reasonable quality.

By the way, I would never answer a customer in the manner that you were delt with. I deal with customers ranging from 5k to 5m per annum and would never dream of doing that. Look how many people now know about this comment from this paticular supplier.

We need to remember who the customer is here, and whos ment to be professional. Not whos right or wrong.

Well dude, you called him a liar first - what did you expect??? There are other ways to ask the same question without calling the guy a liar - which you believe he is, you said so in this thread. e.g.

"I heard recently of some counterfeit Chinese chains about, are you sure of your supplier on this?"

I'm with the rest of them that believe you got what your earned. You called him out, he told you to get knotted - fair enuff
