Went to adjust my chain yesterday and noticed one of the inside links is broken Neutral
Its a D.I.D. 520VM gold chain - X ring i think.
In the handbook it says the chain is : 110 links chain drive with o-ring chain 5/8" x 1/4 continous, so i assume a X ring has been put on inplace of an O.
M&P has a chain for a Yam SZR 660 (my MZ is based on this) and its a "DID Gold H/D X-Ring Chain 520VMx110"
Will this be the same chain ?

Also are all sprockets the same size ? I know obviously there are teeth differences but the diameter and bolt holes, are they the same for every bike ?

I hate to say it, but the best thing is to probably call M&P (or whatever) and ask them.

What bike have you got exactly? To me, "MZ" automatically brings up the image of a big-ish trailie. Confused I assume that the bike uses the SZR engine, which should mean that the front sprocket is the same, but the rear could be different.

Doesn't the MZ skorpion use the SZR engine?
