I bought one last year for <$80 delivered.
Someone posted a link here in the forum.
I hope everyone continues to do the 530 conversion, so the next time I need an "outdated" 630 chain it'll be even cheaper!
HA!

I second that. I like the big, muscular look of the 630. Also, it's correct for my bike (1100EZ). Also, it's already on there. No conversion necessary.
Meh, you can't see it while you're riding anyway.
Are you contiuing with the Mag Mopus tires and the 1978 brake pads too? How about the original fork springs?
Buy the good stuff for your motorcycle, it's worth it.
This line I can agree with.
I'm not against the conversion to 530. In fact, after reading someone (I think it was Chef) say it made a noticeable improvement in acceleration, I added it to my list.
It's just that there's so many items ahead of it: new tires, new (steel) brake lines, regulator/rectifier, to name just a few (costly) things.
PS The 1100EZ is an '82, not '78 model.

Ain't that the truth? Every bike is a never-ending project.
No, never. I lose interest and sell them, closely followed by buying a different one, or just buy another when I feel like it and then sell the old one I'll miss the least. Always will be buying another one. But I prefer the problem child, the closer to perfect they get, the less interest I have in them. Generally the plan is to buy it for a song, get it safe and reliable, ride it until I'm tired of it, then make it pretty and sell it to someone. Sometimes I just can't get motivated to finish up the last few finishing touches, I'd rather tear into something big on the non runner I bought last night.
I'm trying to slow down and keep them longer, only buy the ones I really want, but it's tough.

Thanks.
Thanks.
Thanks for the info in this post. Learned more reading this than any other thread. Was wondering why I would ever go to a shorter link or moth ball my nylon rear sprocket. All I needed to keep my 630 and nylon set up is a 3/8 front offset sprocket.
Will now be putting the 630 set up in a box and going with 530. Info provided here was much better than the just do it advice I've gotten in the past.
