Heavy duty hyvo primary chain
Laverda Dave:
It is a like for like replacement but as previously stated it's half the price of the original Honda part.
I used one in my 400 rebuild and it's absolutely fine. I purchased mine from Daytona Motorcycles, it did have to be ordered in but was here within three days.
Orcade-Ian:
Thanks for the link and info chaps, I'm probably mixing HD with cam chains, not primary - another age thing, no doubt. This is technically a spare engine anyway, although it was the one that came with the bike and appears on the V5c. Didn't change it in case I ever got round to doing this one and swapping back.

Bryanj:
Yup 350,400,500,550 all same but change the damper rubbers in primary drive
I get chain from Fowlers and dampers from Nurse Julie.
Its not HD just half the price and cheaper as genuine Kawasaki than a pattern Tourmax from other sellers
Orcade-Ian:
Thanks Bryan,
Everything is just about ready for assembly, so I'll get those bits ordered. Bloody cold in the workshop today but might warm up soon!

Been using the Kawasaki chain for 9 years, but only about 6000 miles and all good. Recently built an engine using the best parts of two and I readily moved it on to that engine. It is used in much more powerful bikes right up to the late 90s, but they may have had a tensioner.
