How many link chain do the DRX90's have

[forgiven]

Does anyone know or do I need to commence to counting?

getting a solid chain no master link. if so what do those cost.

[forgiven]

I plan on getting a DID oring 428 the smallest size I see is 90. Just didn't want to have to pay for extra links.

I got a bunch of stiff links and the stock chain isn't going to cut it so I want to get a good chain that will last and is more...kid/wife proof.

i have the same problem no matter how much oil i put on the chain. i have to take them off and put them in a parts cleaner but it doesnt fix all the links.

[forgiven]

I have mine soaking in oil and still have stiff links. Someone must know how many links.

[kenjolly]

it seems you are as lazy as i am, niether of us will walk out to the garage and count the links.

[forgiven]

Mine is sitting in a bucket of oil, and wasn't it was your turn anyway?

I just got a 124 link and had about 5-6 inches left over. I am pretty sure I used a 116 last year and only took off a couple inches.

[drr5]

buy the 120 i believe and get a chain press, before long the left overs make a new chain, and dont bother with master links they are the weak link

[kenjolly]

whats the best chain to buy,see just found something else to buy and the tranny fix.

did gold,rkz gold is what ive used for the past few years the did seems to be heavier duty but we have had good luck with the rkz gold chain.

[forgiven]

So the DID oring chain...should I stay away from an oring chain?

[forgiven]

The number of links is 45 (46 with the master). Keep in mind I just got off mids, but I did get the same number 3 times.

maybe 92 links , but Always get a longer chain the extra links are handy , if you get a kink or tight spot you can replace a section with your extra links . I personally would not run an O-ring chain for dirt use.

I am wondering why not. I have had that advice given to me, but on my quad I love the oring because you clean and go. The non-orings you gotta soak em, lube em etc etc

I am not trying to debate...just trying to understand.

I am sure some might disagree but this is might take ...the nature of our dirt riding is very brutal to a chain , mud, sand, dirt and water (rust) get in every area of the chain and requires constant cleaning usually with degreaser and preasure washer ... those little rubber o-rings dont like sand , dirt or degeaser so they will deteriate quickly . And removing the chain and soaking in solvent and relubing is not a viable option for a rubber o-ring chain. O-rings work well for street use.

O-ring chains also have more friction than a good mx chain such as DID.
