FAQs
Does this chain come with a connecting link?
Yes, it includes a clip-type master link for installation.
Can I use this chain for racing?
The EB-ORO is designed for performance street use. For competitive track racing, please consult your manufacturer's specific recommendations for high-stress applications.
How often should I lubricate the Regina 520 EB-ORO?
We recommend lubricating the chain every 300-500 miles, or immediately after riding in wet or dusty conditions.
Is the gold finish just for looks?
While the gold finish provides an aesthetic appeal, it also serves as a protective coating that helps resist corrosion and environmental wear.
What is the benefit of a solid roller?
Solid rollers distribute load more evenly and are less prone to deformation than hollow rollers, significantly extending the life of the chain and sprockets.
Troubleshooting
Chain making audible clicking or snapping noise
Check for tight spots or kinked links. Clean the chain thoroughly and ensure proper lubrication; if a link remains stiff, it may need replacement.
Chain tension changes frequently
Check your rear sprocket and countershaft sprocket for wear. If the teeth are 'hooked' or worn, they will cause the chain to stretch rapidly regardless of quality.
Visible rust on the side plates
Clean the chain with a soft brush and apply a protective rust-inhibiting chain wax or lubricant to protect the gold finish.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Increased tensile strength due to alloy carbon steel pins
- Solid rollers offer better wear resistance than standard chains
- Pre-stretched for consistent performance out of the box
- Extended bushings significantly reduce the risk of link kinking
- Premium gold aesthetic finish
Cons
- Includes clip-type link which some riders prefer to replace with rivet links for high-power applications

- May require more frequent tension adjustments than heavy-duty sealed chains
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Ensure your motorcycle is compatible with a 520 pitch chain before installation. The Regina 520 EB-ORO arrives with 112 links, which may require shortening using a professional chain breaker tool to match your bike's specific sprocket configuration. When installing the provided clip-type link, ensure the open end of the clip faces away from the direction of chain rotation to prevent it from being knocked off during operation.
Care instructions include:
- Regular cleaning with a dedicated motorcycle chain cleaner—avoid using harsh solvents that can damage O-rings or the finish.
- Apply a high-quality chain lubricant specifically designed for motorcycle use to ensure proper penetration into the bushings.
- Check chain tension regularly according to your motorcycle manual's specifications, as improper tension is the leading cause of premature chain failure.
