YBN chains

[89katana750]

Im looking to get a new chain (first time getting one). What does everyone think about the YBN chain for katanas?

[woobie]

What are they going for? I think my DID chain was $120 (Cdn) at a shop in St Catherines.

no idea. It was the chain that I bought the bike with but now its time for replacement. I thought it was alright, but it was my first chain.

AFAM, RK, and DID and other name brands is what I reccomend, I haven't heard of YBN, sounds like a off brand. with just the 3 I listed you can't go wrong.

+1 on ThazKat...

I've never heard of YBM either.

The stock chain is an RK. If you need to go cheap, order a replacement through JC Whitney. IMHO 2 cheaply priced decent chains will last longer than one expensive "whistles-n-bells" chain, so price the stock chain on eBay before you go blowing big bucks on other name brands.

sorry to bump an old thread, but is there a place that lists out all the acronyms for company names?

I've never heard of YBM either, I just replaced my chain and sprockets last year and went with an RK.
