here's to wed


Yes...some dealers say that,(but will also sell you a motocrosser or enduro with a split link,at the same time)...but at the end of the day IMO it's only 48bhp ish....my Gas Gas 300 has more,as has any MX'er etc. and they always did and do run a split link. I never broke a chain back in the day even with the grunt of my CR500 lol

Road racers safety wire their split links...get up to the North West with an anorak and do a spot of chain spotting lol

Probably worried about some sort of claim or guff like that...elfen safetee ho hum...
