Raider Rider/xs newbie
Bike = 1980 S models chopped into a lowered bratstyle bobber with the 16" wheel. Bike sat for 14 years and has 17k on it.
A couple of questions:
1. How long does a stock chain last?
2. How do you know if your front and rear sprockets are still good?
3. Are Volar chains any good (seen them for cheap)? What are some good brands of Chains
4. Stay 530 or convert to 520? Any bene's for the 520 other than weight.
5. The bike is my wife's...finished the bike should be less than 400lbs, rider less than 150lbs geared up. What sproket chain combination is going to work best for the occasional freeway ride 75mph but most of the riding will be around 40-60mph.
Thanks.
