Aye Ian,

Regina chain is no bad but on a 33HP single or even a 50HP single it's a bit OTT!  ;)

Manufactured for warp factor motorcycles ridden at warp speeds on 60mph speed limit roads by eejits with flexible friends or deeeeep pockets!

I wonder if it is cheaper to produce than a lithium battery powering a direct drive electric motor?  :-\

Toodle pip, and watch out for flooding, Bill

Aye Michael,

New 'feature' for motorcyclist's with new 'themed' bathrooms!  ;)  Use it for the plugs and the cistern!  ;D  I wonder if it still rusts when put near water?  :-\

Good health, Bill

Scathing comment on BMW by one punter;

"We can’t imagine that this hasn’t undergone a whole bunch of testing before release, but nevertheless look forward to seeing how this new chain performs in real-world conditions." Like the 2014 R1200RT "DO NOT RIDE" recall perhaps? As rider friendly as BMW bikes are, this company does not seem to do adequate pre-release bench or road testing, it's hell for leather release to the market to start earning those profits! In South Africa journalists were killed test riding new release bikes that hadn't been properly inspected. Then it's DENY DENY DENY!
