530hd chain question
« on: January 09, 2024, 07:36:42 PM »
Just a quick query regarding RK 530h chains, do they have a rivet or split link?

I did wonder, a split link fitted in the correct direction is fine on a 550 isn't it Bryan? Saves buying a chain riveter

I have never seen a correctly fitted and looked after one break, just make sure the chain and link are the same make/type
