TUSK X Ring Motorcycle & ATV Chain Gold Plated Low Friction 520

Description

Product Overview

The TUSK X Ring chain is a high‑grade power transmission component designed for both motorcycles and all‑terrain vehicles. Crafted from precision‑engineered steel alloy, each link is heat‑treated for optimal strength while maintaining a lightweight profile of just 0.64 ounces. A distinctive gold plating not only adds a premium visual appeal but also creates a protective barrier against rust and environmental wear. The core of the system is the X‑ring seal, a sealed‑for‑life design that retains lubrication, minimizes friction, and prevents contaminants from entering the chain interior. With dimensions of 3 × 2 × 0.5 inches, the chain fits a wide range of sport and off‑road models, delivering consistent torque transfer and reduced drag during aggressive riding. The product carries the TUSK brand reputation for European‑style engineering, ensuring each component meets rigorous quality standards before it reaches the market.

Usage

Designed for performance‑oriented riders, this chain excels in both track and trail environments. Whether you are competing in a motocross event, tackling rugged back‑country trails, or simply cruising on a street‑legal sport bike, the X Ring chain provides reliable power delivery. Its low‑friction design reduces heat buildup, allowing longer ride times without overheating. The gold‑plated surface resists the corrosive effects of mud, water, and road salts, making it ideal for wet or salty conditions often encountered in coastal or winter riding. Installation is straightforward: the chain is sold as a component to be paired with compatible sprockets, and its precise tolerances ensure a snug fit that reduces the need for frequent adjustments. Regular maintenance involves a quick visual inspection and occasional lubrication, though the sealed X‑ring dramatically extends the interval between service checks.

FAQ

What size chain do I need for my motorcycle?

The TUSK X Ring chain is offered in standard pitch sizes that match most sport and off‑road motorcycles. Check your vehicle’s service manual for the recommended pitch and number of links, then select the corresponding TUSK model. If you are unsure, our support team can help you identify the correct size based on your bike’s make, model, and year.

Is the chain compatible with all sprockets?

The chain works with any compatible sprocket that matches the chain’s pitch and width. It is not sold as a complete drivetrain kit, so you will need to pair it with appropriate front and rear sprockets. We recommend using TUSK‑branded sprockets for optimal performance, but high‑quality aftermarket options are also suitable.

How often should I lubricate the chain?

Because the X‑ring seal retains lubrication and blocks contaminants, routine lubrication can be less frequent than with standard chains. A light spray of chain‑specific lubricant every 500‑600 miles, or after exposure to heavy mud or water, is sufficient to maintain peak performance.

What warranty does TUSK provide?

TUSK offers a one‑year limited warranty covering manufacturing defects in material or workmanship. The warranty does not cover damage caused by improper installation, misuse, or normal wear. For any warranty claim, contact our customer service with proof of purchase and a description of the issue.
