the pins and side plates are the same on rivet or clip style links and there should be almost no side force on the link unless the wheel is not aligned correctly.



I totally agree.

I just turned 10k with the stock chain. It seemed like junk. I was having problems keeping it ajusted for more than a day. That is, if I was riding with my buddy that has a KZ. I guess hole-shots aren't good on them!

Anyway, the Triumph Service Manual or Owners Manual says something about lubing the chain every 200 miles. The DID web site said that I could go 300 miles on a lube with the chain I bought. There were times that I'd soak my chain in lube everyday with as little as 50 miles on it. The stock chain would start to get real loud after 100-200 miles on a lube.

How often should I lube this new chain?
