A few things to note about motorcycle chains
Motorcycle chains are actually a relatively good product. This type of product is also widely used in our lives. I believe everyone understands this. We can often see motorcycles on the road. If the tires of motorcycles are running, chains are indispensable. However, there are a few specific precautions about motorcycle chains that the motorcycle chain factory should still tell you.
First of all, you should pay attention to the specifications of the chain. Find out which chain models are suitable for your car, such as 428, 520, 525 or 530, and then decide on the grade of the chain. The chain manufacturer will indicate the displacement grade suitable for each chain.
The chain is most afraid of getting stuck, and it takes a lot of force to loosen it. After loosening, the chain will not run smoothly, the power of the engine will also be consumed on the rotating chain, and it may even cause the chain to fall off. Therefore, the selection and cleaning and maintenance of the chain are particularly important.
Non-oil-sealed chains can be cleaned with kerosene. Oil-sealed chains are not recommended for cleaning with kerosene. The reason is that kerosene may cause the elasticity of the oil seal to deteriorate, causing the oil seal to age faster, and causing the lubricating oil in the bushing to be thrown out and lose its lubricating effect, which also reduces the life of the oil seal chain. The more recommended approach is to buy the original chain cleaner to spray, which will be more effective. According to relevant information, you should apply oil to the chain after every 500 kilometers of riding or driving in rainy days. Then, after applying oil twice, clean it again.
Oil-sealed chains and non-oil-sealed chains have their own advantages and disadvantages. Which one you need to buy depends on the model and your own needs, and the oil-sealed chain is not the quality responsibility. The second thing is to choose a chain that suits your model and see the specifications of the chain before buying it. In order to ensure the service life of the chain, corresponding cleaning and maintenance are essential steps.
