No expert here but that motocross chain is not "0" ring? Are Groms not running "0" ring chains as standard? I can see how an "0" ring chain might be a drag on a small engine but the life span between the two chains is quite significant. Also, please be careful about spinning the wheel while running a rag along the chain. Ouch!
I went down the rabbit hole on zero ring chains a couple years ago. My research popped up as extremely negligible at best. Good point though.. it would make for a good video to do a side by side test with top speed runs.
@@0to60eventually_youtube I only mention this because I'm old enough to remember when there was no such thing as "0" ring chains. Back in those days chain adjustment and lube was a very regular thing and they wore out fast. Todays "0" ring chains were a major game changer whose performance we now take for granted. This caught my attention because I mistakenly ordered a Motocross chain for my Triumph Scrambler. I put it on anyway because I wanted to ride but I expect to be replacing a lot sooner than the almost 30k km chain I replaced.
So glad I found your channel! Looking forward to more videos
Good video, but you need to remove those subtitles, they’re distracting af.
Thanks for the feedback, I'll see about making it less distracting.
