Monster S2R 800 - ALL BLACK


« on: May 08, 2010, 04:33:27 PM »

I just ordered a EK MVXZ chain from monsterparts in black with gold rollers. It looks pretty nice but I'm not sure how it'll look with the rest of my bike which is basically all gloss black with silver aftermarket bits. I found an EK mvxz apparently in chrome here http://www.moto-chains.com/site/898528/product/ek520mvxz. I think it would match well it the new supersprox stealth i got.



I wanted to know if anyone has actually seen anything like this? I might just end up keeping the black and gold chain.

The chain will turn black sooner or later...If you don't clean it.   cheeky

I've got a gold chain (DID EVR3) also, but I didn't but it for the color...

I'm not in to the whole gold thing, but the chain does compliment the Ti/Ni fork sliders.  Undecided

I think the black chain would look good.  I wish I would have went with black, It would have looked much better with my setup.  But as said earlier, it will all be black eventually!  (unless you actually clean yours)

When I first bought my bike, I constantly cleaned the chain to silence the squeaking sound.  In time, I learned that if you make the bike louder, the squeaking "goes away".

That's amongst the most revolting things I've ever seen.

Why does it matter what your chain looks like?

The fact that they would even make that makes me question their company as a whole.

I spend entirely way toooooo much money on things only I would notice. I'd like to think though that it all comes together in the end when everything is on the bike and it all works.

Not just pink, but pink glitter!  Needs matching bar end tassles.
