whats been said above really.

supposedly that Xrings only really make a difference on a track. as you can lose up to 3bhp through a neglected chain.

i got an X-ring chain and it doesnt seem much different to an O ring chain BTW.

Race bikes don't use an O/X ring chain and use solid rollers as far as I'm aware.

I'm having a problem visualising this for some reason. Maybe do me a pic next time you do it?

I thought it was hard to figure out too...then he did it too mine... holds it just as secure as a paddock stand...photo needed though to show the exact place to put the brick... but to give some sort of area... it is where the front pipe and the rear come together.... Ape will either confirm this.. or rip the P**s outta me...
