DUCATI 1100 HYPERMOTARD [2008-2012] - Z-ring chain

The Regina 525 HPE Z-Ring chain with Rivet Link sets new standards in motorcycle technology. This innovative chain features revolutionary High Performance Endurance (HPE) technology, which eliminates the need for regular relubrication that would otherwise be required every 1,000 km. Thanks to extensive laboratory and road tests, the HPE chain offers at least the same, if not longer, service life than conventional, regularly lubricated Z-ring chains.

A special feature of the Regina 525 HPE chain is the coating with tetrahedral amorphous carbon (ta-C), one of the most advanced forms of DLC (Diamond Like Carbon) coatings. This coating is applied to the surface of the bushings and rollers and reduces energy losses while increasing efficiency in the secondary drive. The extremely high hardness of the coated surface combined with a low coefficient of friction results in improved performance and longevity.

Eliminating the need to clean and lubricate the chain not only minimizes maintenance, but also the environmental impact of lubricant splashes during operation. The development of the innovative ta-C coating process is the result of intensive research and development work by Regina engineers in Italy. This chain is an excellent choice for motorcyclists who value performance, durability and reduced maintenance.
