Key features

RQ2 road-series chain with low-friction X-ring sealing that reduces drag and wear while helping retain lubrication between inner components.
428 pitch size suitable for motorcycles specified for 428 sealed drive chains in commuter, sport and lightweight road segments.
Recommended for engines up to 150 hp, providing a strong balance between durability, weight and overall running efficiency for road applications.
Gold-coloured outer plates for enhanced corrosion resistance and a premium appearance on exposed drive chains.
Pre-stretched during production to minimise initial elongation after installation, helping maintain stable chain tension over time.
Supplied as a continuous Chainroll, ideal for workshops and service centres that cut custom chain lengths and finish them with matching RQ2 pin and connecting links.
