It's just that it seems rather cheap?

I have a DID x-ring on my Gasser that goes through all kinds of filth and muck and I don't think I've adjusted it once yet. Mine is a VM not a VX though.

It's from DK though, I thought BCF was at war with DK for them selling ringer bikes?

Cheers, I have PM'd Marki to ask if it has been any good.

Is it worth the £20 extra for the gold DID VM chain then or is it just for the bling factor?

I bought the same C & S kit for my ZX7R, it arrived today. Looks good to me and I had heard good reviews about the chain from friends.

Hopefully I will get around to fitting it on Saturday.
