Hi, do you need a tool to fit this chain?

We would always recommend using a chain tool for fitment.

Does this chain come with a soft link or do I need to buy one separately?

The D.I.D 'X'Ring drive chain - 530 Pitch VXGB is supplied with a soft link.

Substance not just style

This is the second one if these I have fitted to my classic Kawasakis, the smart look and feel of the product gives the finishing touch to a restoration and feel plus it's longevity and performance make paying just that few pounds extra well worth it.

AMAZING!

After a long research, it's the best deal If you are looking for a PERFECT, DURABLE CHAIN BRAND for race & street use under 100GBP, and a chain that you will add and won't think to change it except after a long term of use like +20K miles, depends on how you treat it well.
It's the BEST option for the bikers who like to do street races, Long rides.

If you want to pay more than 100GBP, you will be definitely looking for a track use chain. which is the top tier chain.

I would say this chain would definitely be recognized as a top tier too but for both uses of racing, street use.

Btw the attached image on the website is old, they have the latest version of the VXGB, it's gold plated, VX3.

The chain is brilliant quality. I had previously purchased elsewhere and was let down. I was so impressed with the service. After ordering the part arrived 14 hours later. I stay in the highlands so I'll definitely use this service again.

I replaced the OEM X-ring chain which had done 17,500 miles. The DID chain went on with no fuss and even adds a little colour to the bike! The transmission is much smoother now and the quality seems excellent so let's see how long it lasts.

Perfect FZS1000 replacement

24 September 2021 by Alex R

Purchased as part of a large order.
Faultless as usual, can't beat D.I.D in my opinion.
Gold colour makes a nice striking change to usual steel/black colours, just make sure to keep it clean!

Really reasonably priced too, and dispatched quickly with traceable delivery

Good quality chain. Good price. First time ever did I have a delivery problem. In all fairness it was the courier's problem. Delivered the item to Sainsbury and then didn't send me a notification e-mail / txt.

I bought this for my 04 R1 because I changed the gearing 1 down and 1 up on the back, and needed a longer chain at 120 links, although I took out 2 links. The quality is second to none, no tight spots. The service from Sportsbikeshop was excellent too. The split link is a hollow type, so I pays to get a tool to rivet it correctly.
