SPROCKET BUD U CAN TELL I DONT THINK ITS THE CHAIN 

[Rangerscott69]

@sayfdyn1. It was the chain. It was just its time. All things must end eventually. I got a new chain/sprockets set and to replace my lost friend. Its been a slow relationship and my heart is healing. I know this relationship will end the same as the last but hopefully I'll have more memories to remember this one by.

when chain is change you suppose to change your sprockets as well cause if you leave your old sprockets your new chain will be toasted.

its a good thing u rec it in HD..i can see the chain n were its been wore out..

[Rangerscott69]

@TaLoCc Yup. HD makes it easier on the eyes. A new chain is almost feels as good as new tires.

your chain is gone u need new make sure when u get new one get new sprocket to front and back and get d.i.d or rk or ek they r good chains

Your chain is oval, and in the narrowest point it is too tense. It is normal at 20000mil.

I ovalized a brand new RK30 gold chain making whellie in less than ...3 monts with my Vfr. It is a heavy bike :))

[Rangerscott69]

Rode for awhile and it was smooth as butter.

all chains have loose and tite spots

Found an RK chain kit with X o-rings for $160. finished the install about an hour ago. Test ride tomorrow.

Just wanted you to know I hate your chain.

So much.

I'd still price out a chain and sprocket set.

As for the chain, I've used RK on the sport quad and it works great! Otherwise I believe DiD is OEM on most Hondas ... just guessing ; )
