DUCATI 998 [2004-2007] - Z-ring chain

The Regina 525 HPE Z-Ring Chain with Rivet Link sets new standards in motorcycle chain performance and durability. Thanks to its innovative technology, this sophisticated chain does not require regular relubrication, which would otherwise be required every 1,000 km. This represents a significant time and cost saving for the driver and significantly increases comfort.

Extensive tests both in the laboratory and on the road have proven that the service life of the HPE chain is at least as long, if not longer, than that of a conventional, regularly lubricated Z-ring chain. The revolutionary tetrahedral amorphous carbon (ta-C) coating, one of the most advanced DLC (Diamond Like Carbon) coatings, is applied to the surface of the bushings and rollers. This coating minimizes energy losses and increases efficiency in the secondary drive through an extremely high hardness of the coated surface combined with a low coefficient of friction.

Another significant benefit of the Regina 525 HPE Z-Ring Chain is the reduction in environmental impact by eliminating the need for chain cleaning and lubricant spraying during operation. The development of this innovative coating process was carried out through intensive research and development work by Regina engineers in Italy. This chain is an excellent choice for motorcyclists who value performance, durability and environmental protection.
