Rick:
somebody on the MC Chassis list posted a short table of efficiency
comparisons for MC drive systems.  As I recall, the worst efficiency was
shaft-drive, and the 2nd-best was o-ring chain.  The most efficient (least
power loss) was "standard" (non-O-ring) chain.  Any experience using the
standard chain on your big-power machines?

Looks like I am the ODDball here. I do not and will not ever use a Tsubaki
chain
I have broke 2 low mileage chains and they stretch like crazy.
I use the RK Oring chains never broke one, they stretch for the first 2 runs
but after that
they are low maintenance .These experiences are running these chains on a
250hp Hayabusa
and a 350hp Turbo GSXR1100 so bikes with less hp might be fine with the
Tsubaki.
