Where to find a good deal on Diamond Powersport chains?
« on: July 14, 2009, 07:13:51 AM »
Does anyone know where I can find a Diamond Powersport chain? It was recommended to me by Hondaman for my 550K. I can't seem to find one.

I thought that maybe he was or someone else on here was selling those chains.
Can't remember which.

Gimme a minute - I'll find it.....

Here's a quote from the thread:

HondaMan is gracious enough to steer us in the right direction, so I thought I'd "link" us to a possible place to get the "good stuff".  All punning aside, I'm not sure if this is a legit deal (sounds fantastic) but if anyone buys one here, please report back your experience with this vendor. 


The model number HondaMan talks about is XMC-1548-M-102P.  This site has it for $42.91 plus about $10.00 shipping.

Here's a link to the thread: http://forums.sohc4.net/index.php?topic=48105.0

I bought this chain.  Really good deal.  In the past I have paid about double that for chains.  The contact I made was willing to talk quantity discount as well.

I read through the thread. Looks good. I'll call Pat at x405 tomorrow! Thanks a million!
