I have been thinking about the thread on the BMW zero maintenace chain.
So even if the rollers ARE coated with some sort of zero wearing coating, what are you gonna do when the sprokets still wear out....NOT replace the chain?
I did my 2-3 time annual chain clean today. After 6200 miles, I dont see an appreciable wear on the sprocket but I keep that aweful mix of lube and road dirt off the chain.
Regina Just Built the First Maintenance-Free Motorcycle Chain - Asphalt & Rubber
BMW is the first to receive a new chain design from Regina, which uses a diamond like coating to make it maintenance-free and more efficient.
