DID 428VX/CLIP CHAIN KIT

DID 428VX/CLIP CHAIN KIT Chain, Pinion, Sprocket

Extremely strong, durable and efficient: the brand used by the Yamaha and Ducati MotoGP works teams. D.I.D chains are renowned for their high efficiency combined with smooth, fast reaction to load changes the result of years of development work for the race track plus state-of-the-art production methods and top-quality materials*.

Every D.I.D chain and sprocket set brings you:

• The expertise of a worldwide original equipment manufacturer
• Probably the most widely used motorcycle chain in the world
• Front and rear sprockets made of high-grade steel from JT, the brand-name OEM, (Please note, however, that any rubber silencer pads on original sprockets are no longer required)
• For 500cc or larger motorbikes, exclusively X-ring chains with gold-plated outer plates

The following types of D.I.D. chain are supplied by Louis, depending on the motorbike model.
ZVM-X:

• The best D.I.D chain available today in terms of rigidity** (10% higher than its predecessor, the ZVM2),
• with the highest wear resistance index to date
• D.I.D X-ring seals*** halve the power loss due to friction compared to an O-ring chain

VX:

• Best value for money of all the D.I.D chains
• Higher rigidity** (7% higher than its predecessor, the VM),
• Far superior service life compared to the VM.

* The secret behind the astonishing performance of these chains is D.I.D's exclusive hardening process for the pins. This special treatment produces an extremely hard surface layer, while maintaining a softer inner core. These chains combine extreme impact resistance with efficient shock absorption. In addition, they are well protected against rust.

** The rigidity of a chain means its ability to resist deformation and stretching. Higher rigidity means smoother handling, less power loss and faster reaction of the chain.

*** The specially shaped sealing rings significantly alter the friction area of the side plates. At the same time, doubling the number of sealing points from 2 to 4 has the effect of safeguarding far more effectively against lubricant loss, and also provides optimum protection against dirt.

Tips for choosing your D.I.D chain and sprocket set:

• D.I.D. chains in the OEM kits are always supplied in accordance with the specifications from the motorcycle manufacturer and/or Daido Corp. Go to "Important information" (highlighted in red) to see whether the chain and sprocket kit comes with an endless chain or a chain with rivet or clip connecting link.
