以上的困扰我相信无论是新手小白,还是一些资深摩托车爱好者都遇到过

生活中一旦有摩友提出有关链条的疑问

群里面总是有着强烈的回应



今天小雷就着手围绕市面上使用最多的

DID,RK,EK,这三个日本品牌来寻找性价比最高的链条


01

PART

找对自己链条的型号


首先第一步,找到对应自己车型的链条型号,怎么找到适合自己的Chain model?

You can check the manual of your vehicle, you can also call the 4S store, or consult the Taobao store.



If you feel complicated and lazy, Xiaolei also has a good way. Open the official website of did, fill in your car model, and the most suitable model will appear.



On the same RK official website, you can also see the chains that are suitable for the corresponding models, including the lift and detailed test data of the chains. What does

PART

chain mean?


There is still a little confusion among motorcyclists about the meaning of the chain model, because the length and width of the chain required by each car are different.


When we buy chains, we will see that the chain specifications are written: 428, 520, 525, etc. What does that mean?

Take the chain used by Xiaolei’s KTM as an example. The existing chain is 114 links, so the specification of the RK chain purchased is 520x120L, where 120L means the chain is 120 links.


The chain can be shortened if you buy it long, but you can’t install it if you buy it short. and 520 are the chain specifications. The first number 5 is the length of the chain link: the last 20 refers to the width of the inner width.

How to choose the chain? DID, who is the king of cost performance between RK and EK? - Lujuba



关于油封链条是不是智商税,这点其实我们在各品牌的官网都能查到测试成绩,举例RK的520XSO2油封链条官方说明里寿命保证是铺装道路达到20000英里,或是非铺装1 Years, converted into kilometers are 32,000 kilometers before you need to change to .



Therefore, the lubricating chain with oil seal has a significant improvement in service life. Although the oil seal chain is good, it is not necessary for all models. For example, the 125 or 150 displacement models have relatively small horsepower, and the friction of the oil seal Properties are also bigger. Although

has a slight impact on the power, I would like to explain it to motorcycle friends. Another example is that the riding environment is good, there is no large dust, or short-distance riding. Frequent maintenance of the chain, you can use ordinary chains, frequent maintenance The service life of ordinary chains can also reach 10,000 kilometers. Whether it is necessary to upgrade depends on economic capacity.

其实小雷发现这三个品牌的链条市售型号,其实受品牌影响产生的溢价并不大,主要还是一分钱一分货.



chains are actually what we are most worried about is that they will be deformed, stretched, or even broken. I also read the actual test of chains in Taiwan Province, and they are of the same medium level; DID’s VX, EK’s ZVX, and RK’s XSO. Stretchability is the best, followed by EK, and finally RK, but in fact, the difference in stretch between these three chains is no longer what we can feel in daily life.

sorted by price, the current domestic price of EK’s ZVX series is around ¥1000, DID around ¥850, and RK around ¥650.


So my conclusion is:


How to choose the chain? DID, who is the king of cost performance between RK and EK? - Lujuba


If you have the pursuit of the ultimate product, and the 200 yuan is not bad, I think the global product chain DID of the Rossi platform can give you a better ID experience in the industry leading enterprises.


Of course, EK also has a lower level of products, the price is about ¥850, but compared with the durable DID and the cost-effective RK at this price, the product competitiveness is not obvious.

is RK’s XSO series, the price is about ¥650, besides Marquis platform for endorsement, it is also a more cost-effective choice for domestic drivers. Compared with the more popular brands of z , the medium displacement is the main chain, and the chain displacement is below 800cc. Other chains can be selected according to the depth of the pocket and the corresponding displacement of the chain manufacturer.


so how to choose the chain to learn "waste"? If you don't understand the chain model query, leave a message in the comment area, Finally, I would like to warn everyone that the chain should be maintained and oiled in time after the rain to avoid rust. It is recommended to oil every 500KM for long-distance motorcycle trips, oil-sealed chains and ordinary chainsPay attention to distinguish the different cleaning agents used. Only regular maintenance can better transmit power and avoid abnormal noise.
