Just installed a DID o-ring last night. Is there a break-in procedure I should follow? I installed the new chain, oiled, and tensioned it. How soon should I re-check?
Thanks

I dont know if there is really a break-in procedure for a drive chain. I just check mine every few hours of ride time. If you keep the slack adjusted and keep it lubed, it should last you a while. Assuming you replaced the sprockets.

take it out for a ride but watch it alot. chains will stretch. just makr sure to keep your eye on it.

well you should pop the clutch a few times and thin check and see if it needs tightening
