Good to know you escaped unscathed, KD!

I watched with eyes wide open and held-breath as a rear chain literally - and relatively slowly, string itself-out behind a 750 Norton Commando SS running WFO. I lifted, thinking buddy was gonna be into a full-on, unintended panic stop just ahead/beside me (yeah, he was winning, dammit!). Absolute zero damage minus the chain but man! What it could've been.... must be hard walking with horseshoes up in there.

I've yet to see a primary chain go "Taz" but assured it would not be pretty - or cheap.

I fixed my post for clarity.  It was a primary chain.

My fault, KD. I knew you were talking Primary.
I was leaning away from this "primary" thread - but a "rear" chain story was all I had to share...and it's Christmas and I wanted to share.

  

Looks like the Tsubaki has gone obsolete now!

I sent out a Tsubaki and the Regina that just came in for cryogenic processing. I figure it can't hurt, and may just keep the chain going into the new 124" bike from stretching and breaking.

Maybe I should of been more specific, it shows out of stock for the later touring bikes.

ARH sent an email to me, they're back in stock.
