Description

Tsubaki 530 RQ2 Road Chain – 114-Link X-Ring Drive Chain

The Tsubaki 530 RQ2 road chain is a sealed X-ring final drive chain engineered for modern street motorcycles that require a durable, low-maintenance 530-size 114 links and gold-finished outer plates, this chain combines long service life, efficient power transmission and a clean, premium appearance for road use.

Main Features

530 pitch (5/8" x 3/8") heavy-duty road motorcycle chain suitable for standard 530 final drive systems.
RQ2 long-life series with low-friction X-ring sealing for reduced drag and extended service intervals.
Gold-colored outer plates for a high-quality look and additional corrosion resistance.
Designed for road motorcycles in approximately the up-to-150 hp performance class.
Average tensile strength around 45.1 kN for reliable load capacity under high torque.
Pre-stretched construction to minimize initial elongation after installation.
Includes a hollow-pin rivet-type master link for secure joining using standard chain riveting tools.
Manufactured in Japan for consistent quality and precision.

Performance & Benefits

Reduced friction and power loss: X-ring sealing minimizes contact surface and drag, helping more engine power reach the rear wheel while keeping internal lubrication protected.
Extended service life: Sealed joints, solid bushings and high tensile strength support long mileage and stable performance when correctly maintained.
Stable chain length: Pre-stretched construction reduces initial elongation, helping the chain maintain correct tension over time.
Clean, premium appearance: Gold outer plates complement both modern and classic motorcycles and can visually enhance the final drive area.
Robust under high loads: Engineered to cope with the torque and acceleration of mid to large-displacement road motorcycles within its power rating.

Typical Applications

General replacement chain for road and street motorcycles that use a 530 sealed chain and require 114 links or a chain that can be shortened to the required length.
Suitable for everyday commuting, touring and sporty road riding where reliability and reduced maintenance are priorities.
Appropriate for many large-capacity naked bikes, sportbikes, sport-tourers and cruisers equipped with 530 final drive systems, depending on sprocket sizes and wheelbase.
