So i was just after rebuilding my quad and running it in around the field behind my house and the renthal R4 chain i was using broke a link and flew off. the chain had only 6 practice days done on a blaster. Thankfully no harm was done and i got an other r4 chain foc form the guy i got it off. So Sunday race day, only after qualifying and a third of a lap the chain snapped again!! the joiner link that came with the chain snapped and there were 5 other links on the verge of going.I allways oiled my chain there was enough play on it and the sprockets had only one day before the race. I ran a Rk chain last year for 18 events and it never broke so it make my think how ****ty must these be for a 28hp blaster the distroy 2 chain a quarter ways threw the year?!
