Are all TBA's endless drive chains.Can you convert to a softlink or other type chain so you don't have to disconnect the swingarm to remove the chain for cleaning .I know some of you have bought chain tools what do you recommend and what chains are you buying?
Thanks,
Pete

Hi Pete, The endless chains don't have to be removed for cleaning.. I do mine on the bike and the chain can be replaced with the master link type as long as it's the same strength and size. Bunches of good chain info in the Tech Vault take A bit to check it out.. i found it very informative.

I have the Motion Pro heavy duty chain breaker and press. I haven't used it on the TBA chain but I used it on my brothers Sportster 530 chain and it worked great. They recommend grinding the rivet down first. We replaced with a riveted master link not the clip type.
