    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Who makes a good drivechain for a 750cc bike? I would like to get a gold chain. My sprockets are new with a 530 pitch.
 
Generally best to stick with DID.EK.RK or one of the other "name brands".After years in the sprocket biz JT has they're own branded chain that I have on my 85 750.Seems to be doing well.
 
I like D.I.D. I'm going to check out the JT chain you are talking about. What about master link or rivit type, Yesterday I threw my chain and had to push my bike three blocks to home. I was using master link. Thank God it didn't happen on the freeway that I had just gotten off doing 100mph+!!! One more ?--- What is the factory size chain for this bike? 50V is what the manual says, is that like a 525 pitch? Thanks and Good lookin out! Helmut
 
Did the rivet master on the 750 but my 78 1000 got a clip master.Thinking now I should have done the rivet on it to.It's a 530 chain.
 
I looked at the JT chain and sprocket set, Looks like a nice setup. At $113 bucks I dont think I could go wrong.
 
I have the JT 530 sprockets and use a RK Xring chain. You can get a really nice chain in several colors now days.
 
Hey guys, Thanks for your advice, I went ahead and ordered the JT sprockets and chain combo. $113 bucks to my door. I wanted to let you guys know about the guys I bought the combo from WWW.chainboss.com man, these guys are great, they sell every kind of chain you could imagine and super low prices! I messaged them after I had purchased a silver chain and asked if I could change it to a gold and black one. They imedatly called me and asked what I wanted and said that would be no problem and even threw in a spring master link to get me to the bike shop so I can get the rivet link installed! great service from these guys! they didn't have to do any of this but they did, Anyways, Thanks for your advice. Helmut
