From recent karting endevauers I found I really stand by regina chains. I see a good non o-ring above by them...Think that will be my next chain. We run 30-50hp through #35 chain, and chain strength really starts to show :shock:

Opinions? Who has 'em? ...and that's why they're like....what?

I just put a Regina chain on my Banshee. Brand new sprockets. Regina's recommended quad 520 chain.

I have yet to have ONE ride that didn't end up with the chain being out of adjustment. It's fine to start..one ride...it's sloppy. Adjust it. One ride...it's sloppy.

I bought TWO of them, one for future use. I'm taking it back..getting an RK.

Which isn't to say their non-ringed chains aren't just fine.

Thanks for the review! I've had very good luck with RK as well, and after your comment I'll stay away from their bike stuff. In the case of the kart I found the regina to be just as strong, cheaper, and a hell of a lot easier to break/re-pin(use of a master link on the #35 high HP application lasts about 2 laps...LOL).
