At DMG Motorsports, we present the D.I.D CHAIN 525ZVM-X2-120ZB — a race-bred, 525-pitch drive chain built for riders who demand serious strength behind serious horsepower. Backed by D.I.D's decades of experience supplying chains to MotoGP paddocks, the 525ZVM-X2 takes the proven ZVM-X platform and pushes it further with an upgraded X-Ring seal, giving you a chain that resists stretch, sheds friction, and keeps turning long after lesser chains give out. Whether you're bolting it onto a liter-class superbike, a torque-heavy naked, or a big-bore adventure machine, this 120-link chain is ready to handle the abuse of hard acceleration, sustained high RPM, and mile after mile of aggressive riding.
Features:
- Patented X-Ring seal: The twisting action of the X-Ring increases sealing performance while its four contact points minimize power loss, keeping dirt out and lubrication locked in far better than a standard O-ring.
- Upgraded retention and durability: The ZVM-X2's enhanced X-ring design offers better retention and durability than earlier X-ring chains, translating into greater wear resistance over the life of the chain.
- MotoGP-derived Direct Energy Transfer: Technology born from D.I.D's MotoGP racing experience delivers greater stretch resistance under heavy load, so the chain stays tight and responsive as power increases.
- Built for big-bore power: Rated for engines up to 1,300cc, this chain is engineered specifically for heavyweight motorcycles putting tremendous torque and horsepower to the ground.
- Proven strength: Delivers an average tensile strength of roughly 10,408 lbs, making it one of the strongest 525-pitch chains available.
- 120-link length with a rivet-style master (connecting) link included for a secure, permanent joint.
- Precision construction: Features a pin length of approximately 0.913", pin diameter of 0.217", inner plate thickness of 2.4mm, and outer plate thickness of 2.6mm for consistent, reliable performance.
- Versatile application: A great fit for high-powered street bikes as well as adventure bikes demanding a heavy-duty final drive chain.
- Important note: ZVM-X and ZVM-X2 connecting links are not interchangeable due to differing pin lengths — always use the correct ZVM-X2 master link with this chain.
