Re: IRIS chains?
I dont know... Not even google brings much up. Sigh. It was one the old man got me while I was sat on the side of the road. I looked at it and it seems solid, no bend in it (in the wrong place - side to side) well greased and a generally decent finish. Its apparently the top of their range chain I got, the FB ring, whatever that means, only their site says anything about it... and then not much.
 All in it seems ok. Guess we will see. If I get more engine DMG then I guess its a good excuse to put me an RSV-R engine  Chris fancy helping me do a change if it comes to it?

Re: IRIS chains?
So long as its italian-ness promises not to spread to anything else in my garage.

Re: IRIS chains?
TBH I would stop getting paranoid about it. Keep it cleaned regularly, make sure it don't run dry again, and inspect it regular.......it should be fine.

Re: IRIS chains?
I had a IRIS chain fitted to my sv , it was knackered after 8k miles ( with scotoiler) , I complained and got a Tsbukai replacement free , its been on 12k and had to adjust twice and looks good for 30 k +
Cheers Steveg
