Chain set DID for the Yamaha YZF-R6 (check year from the YZF-R6 below in the motorcycle-list). This is a complete chain kit and contains a front sprocket, rear sprocket and a DID X-ring chain including rivet link. The sprockets in the chain set are supplied as standard with the same ratio as the original.
Please note: we supply chain sets with JT Sprockets sprockets (in some cases Esjot or AFAM if JT Sprockets is not quickly available, but both are A-quality). These sprockets are harder and of better quality than many cheap chain sets offered. With such cheap sets you have a quality chain, but lower quality sprockets (and therefore shorter lifespan). Additional information: DID does not make gears itself.
Specifications:
- Chain: DID X-ring 530 VX with 116 links, color gray (open chain with rivet link, always the latest variant of DID chain)
- Our standard chain set includes the corresponding rivet link and has the correct length. It is best to use special riveting tools for riveting (see recommended articles).
- Front sprocket: 16
- Rear sprocket: 48
The chain set can also be ordered at an additional cost with a different sprocket ratio instead of the standard ratio. To do this, select the "Version" option for "Custom" (steel-colored chain) or "Custom gold" for a gold-colored chain with a custom sprocket ratio. Other options for this chain set:
- Front sprocket: 15 - 16 - 17
- Rear sprocket: 38 - 39 - 43 - 44 - 45 - 46 - 48
When completing the order, please specify the other gear ratio in the comments field next to the shipping method. Please note: if a different gear ratio is chosen, the chain may have to be shortened afterwards (chain is always long enough and check the length before riveting).
Chain set maintenance tip: a well-maintained chain can have a lifespan of 25,000-30,000 km. This means regular lubrication and the advice is to thoroughly clean the chain once a season with special cleaner (off-road use more often!). We have put together a special set of S100 and it is now on sale. This gives you a very good cleaner and a chain spray that has been proven to lubricate your chain well without dirtying your rim or clothing.
