As said, broke my second 410 chain. This one a pretty nice 410 HD BMX chain. I tore one side of the link parts in half. It hit my frame so hard I think It was trying to remove my left leg. I cracked the magneto cover plate from the inside where the chain bound to the inside of the case infront of the drive sprocket.
Alignment was good, all was good, the chain just tore. After the clutch cable broke. So I was basically birddoggin it trying to get home without stopping and stalling out!
So I like the dimmensions of the 410. While very expensive, I think this may be the best bet.
Any ideas?
