What is the lightest chain available now? I was thinking about going with the RK MXZ4 anyone have any experience with it? I have been running Renthal but thought I would switch it up a bit.

The lightest /strongest chain available is used by all the MXGP riders it a EK 3D 520MX.....EK are made in japan..use can download their catalog to read about it....find them on ebay pretty cheap.....ive had 2 of them and they are very light and last...i ride 3days aweek...do 4 30min motos.....i race alot......these chains are no joke.....add in the DirtTricks "ironman" sprokets which are lighter then aluminum sprockets but made of surgical steel and last forever....keeps the wear way down on the chains......this combo is bulletproof......

D.i.D are right there with the EK........ive used every other brand renthal,protaper,regina, afam,.. None last..well on a 450 anyways....used RK they are descent chains as well....however the Regina i have on my yz295 has been good to me.....the regina was free cant complain.....but 450s are hard on chains...and the combo that has held up great as to date is the EK 3D 520mx..with Ironman sprockets....

RK MXZ4 is a great chain IMO. We've had great luck with them for the past 3 years anyway
