HONDA CRF 1000 L AFRICA TW [2016-2021] - Z-ring chain

The Regina 525 HPE Z-ring chain with rivet link sets new standards in motorcycle technology. This innovative chain eliminates the need for regular relubrication that motorcyclists would otherwise have to do every 1,000 km. Extensive laboratory and road testing has proven that the HPE chain has a lifespan at least equal to, if not longer than, traditional regularly lubricated Z-ring chains.

A standout feature of this chain is the tetrahedral amorphous carbon (ta-C) coating, one of the most advanced forms of DLC (Diamond Like Carbon) coatings. This coating is applied to the surface of the bushings and rollers of the HPE chain and leads to a reduction in energy losses and an increase in efficiency in the secondary drive. The extremely high hardness of the coated surface combined with a low coefficient of friction optimizes the performance of the chain.

Eliminating the need for chain cleaning and avoiding lubricant splashes during operation also minimizes environmental impact. This technological innovation was made possible by intensive research and development work by Regina engineers in Italy. The Regina 525 HPE Z-Ring chain is an excellent choice for motorcyclists who value performance, durability and environmental protection.
