EK 428 O-Ring Chain Gold 136L (20)

Introducing the EK 428 O-Ring Chain Gold 136L (20) — engineered for riders who demand durability, precision, and standout style from their motorcycle drivetrain.

Built around EK's trusted O-ring sealing technology, this 428-size chain seals lubrication inside each link while repelling dirt and grime. The result: smoother power delivery, reduced chain wear, and fewer maintenance stops, even in wet, muddy, or urban riding conditions.

• 
  Sealed for longevity: The O-rings trap lubricant and minimize dirt ingress, dramatically extending chain and sprocket life under demanding riding conditions.
• 
  Gold finish for protection and aesthetics: A durable gold coating not only looks premium but also enhances corrosion resistance, keeping the chain looking fresh longer.
• 
  136L length designed for broad compatibility: With 136 links, this EK chain is suited for 428-chain setups commonly found on mid-displacement sport bikes and street machines, providing reliable fit and tensioning when paired with compatible sprockets.
• 
  Performance you can feel: Expect smoother acceleration, quieter operation, and consistent power transfer across gear changes, thanks to the optimized plate geometry and precise manufacturing tolerances.

This EK 428 O-Ring Chain Gold 136L is ideal for riders who daily commute, enjoy spirited weekend rides, or take their machine to the track for occasional sessions. It’s a practical upgrade if your current chain shows signs of stretch, noise, or corrosion from weather exposure. The gold variant isn’t just about looks; it’s a deliberate choice for riders who value a longer service life and a chain that stays cleaner between lube intervals.

Key considerations and care tips

• 
  Compatibility: Designed for 428 O-ring chain systems. Check your motorcycle’s service manual to confirm a 136-link configuration and chain size before installing.
• 
  Installation notes: When replacing a chain, it’s wise to also inspect and, if necessary, replace sprockets to ensure even wear and optimal performance.
• 
  Lubrication and maintenance: After installation, re-lubricate with a quality chain lube suitable for O-ring chains. Re-lubricate periodically, especially after riding in rain or through dusty conditions.
• 
  Inspection: Regularly check for kinks, stiff links, or abnormal wear and replace the chain if any signs appear. Periodic chain tension checks per your bike’s manual help prevent premature wear.

With the EK 428 O-Ring Chain Gold 136L (20), you’re choosing a well-regarded chain that blends performance, longevity, and style. It’s designed to keep you moving with confidence, whether you’re grabbing a morning twist of the throttle or carving mountain bends on a weekend ride.
