It's time for the chain.
The odometer went over 20,500km during the touring the other day. I'm hoping to go far away for the next three weekends, weather permitting. On weekends that are not consecutive holidays, I'm planning to use the available space for rental bikes, and I've already made a reservation for the ZX-14R.
So, I'm wondering if it's time to change the chain. I think it's time to replace it. When I move it by hand, it moves a little sideways, and it seems to have loosened up quite a bit.
Somehow, the feeling of running out of chain oil is getting shorter these days.
Chain only? Sprocket too?
I thought I could just use the chain this time, since it didn't look worn out, but I read on the web that it would be ideal to replace it at the same time, considering the familiarity with the chain.
Although the stock product is made of strong material and is not prone to wear and tear, I have a desire to replace it with a lighter product for some reason, which might be a good idea. By the way, the other day
Something like this.set productThe stock chain is also DID. The stock chain is also DID, so I thought this might be just right.
As usual, I did some research. SUNSTAR is that Sunstar?
Well, there are many manufacturers of chains, and it will take some time to choose the right one, including the color, so let's look at the sprocket first.
And speaking of sprockets, Sunstar. "So Sunstar for motorcyclists is not toothpaste, it's sprockets~" I thought......The sprocket company SUNSTAR was a subsidiary of the toothpaste company SUNSTAR.
This is Sunstar Giken, a company that develops and produces brake discs, sprockets, and other parts for motorcycles. Oh no, I didn't know that!...
I'll just use the chain this time.
So I did some research, but I don't have the desire to change the number of sprockets, so I'll just get the chain this time. I think I'll go for a gold color, and I'll check out the manufacturer and grade.
