Does anybody know of a good place to source a gold 530 non o-ring chain?

Thanks in advance,
Kyle

I bought one at a Honda dealership and I bought one from Cycle Gear. Do you have a Cycle Gear near you?

This is a question truly born of ignorance, but what is special about the gold in reference to chains?

Nope, no cycle gear, and the closest thing to a honda dealership for me is a rent-all place. What did you end up paying?

Just would look better than a normal chain

The chain would have a 'gold' coating on the link plates to give it a fancy look. Available in other colors as well

I did assume we were talking about plating. As for corrosion resistance my chain is pretty much always lathered up in lube.
