how about fixing something like Big Ben,sure you can use your massive fingers and dodgy eyes there.mabey combine it with a bit pointing work. -
trouble is chad this chain was superceded a while ago and the links are now like hens teeth to get hold of.i will see if the one of the bay fits as some lads on other forums have bought of ebay and they have got the later type link. the mechanics at M and S motorcycles in newcastle have been taking the links out of brand new chain kits so they now have a load of brand new £100 chains they can't sell.not good P. R.for DID is it.

was up the hill today to get a few bits ,one being a soft link for a DID50VM chain.would you believe can't get one as DID make the 530 chain with bigger link pins now and they stopped making the old link so i've got a near mint chain that i will have to chuck if i can't get a soft link. if any one has a spare soft link lying around i would be eternally gratefull if i could buy it off you.if not looks like a new chain but it won't be a DID robbing barstewards.
