Check your sprokets also. Change both sprokets if you have miles and then put the necw chain on EK 530zvk X ring. Chain should not have snapped??

I didnt think should break with 6200 miles on it.Both sprockets look good.One of the pins broke.Im glad i was only going 30 mph.I guess the tire hooked up pretty well!!!

Tsubaki sigma 530... they also have them in nickel plated for a bit more.

RK GXW 530 - Strongest one I could find.

I have the same one as mikey d. I like it. I figured that I had to buy a new one (extended swingarm) so I might as well buy a good one.

EK 530 zvx is 10,800 Gold or silver

Ek 530drv 11,500 You are running stock any of the chain mentioned by the guys are all more then enough. make sure you do not ues a clip use a rivit.

I ordered a silver EK-ZVX from Schnitz and a 16t front gear for $154 to my door.It seems that people have good luck with Schnitz.I hope i do as well.
