Chain DID Standard Grade Gold & Black - Yamaha TY 50 M (German Market) 1980

DID Standard Chain

Although DID S Standard chain represents DID's simplest grade of chain, it still features the finely tuned engineering and high-quality control that DID is so well known for, using the latest in Japanese chain technology.

The bushing on a chain is important for impact and wear resistance, and helps to absorb the shock from the rollers rather than directly transmitting it to the pins. By using rigid, seamless, solid bushes, instead of curled bushes that other manufacturers use, the wear life of a DID Standard chain can be 1.2 to 4 times the life of a chain using curled bushings.

All DID chains are made in Japan.

If the original equipment chain was an O-Ring or X-Ring chain, it must not be replaced with a standard chain. It must be replaced with a sealed chain of equal or greater strength.
