iris is a good chain if your on a budget, its by far the best of the cheaper brands imo,
used to sell a lot of it...
often ,a non O ring chain quite often has a lower tensile strength for the same size too, so check that
best iv had is EK tbh, its outlasted everything on my 147bhp zrx12,
izumi is good too
i always run a scottoiler on mine,
whatever you do, dont use industrial, constant run chain, its way weaker than bike chain

I used to run my 650 Triumph Bonny on fork lift truck chain when I was a teenager -it was free from the factory I worked in.
I've got a Scott Oiler going free if anyone wants one. It was in the pile of parts that came with my XS when I bought it. No idea how it works or if it's complete, but yours for the cost of the postage if anyone wants it.

Always run our old brits on DID heavy duty chain, acquired from Fords in Dagenham, where a mate worked. We had a whole roll of it at one time

Back in the days when I had bikes with chains I did try the chain we had at work but it was constantly needing adjusting. In the end I went for Reynolds chain and that did the trick. This was in the days before I ever heard of endless or o ring chains though, dunno how they compare now

manky, if you turn it right up to max, and suck on the pipe in the middle of the cap, you should see the middle lift slightly.
ill have it if no one has asked for it, working or not,

I ain't sucking on that! (as I believe the actress said to the ecclesiastical gentleman). It's been in a tub of gungy old bike parts. so needs a good clean up.
Yours for the cost of the postage. PM me your address & I'll get it in the post to you.
