  • 1915 HD chain advice

    This is the first chain driven machine I have owned. All others are shaft drive BMW's. This bike is a '15 Harley 3 speed twin and is going to be ridden. I could use some general advice on chains. I have heard the chains on the primary and rear wheel might be 520 HD. So I have a few questions:

    1. Who is a good manufacturer of chains?
    2. O-ring chains, should I stay away from those?
    3. What do people use for cleaning and lubrication?
    4. What chain tools should I buy and who makes the best?
    5. What kind of life should I expect out of chain?

    Thanks,
    Erik Bahl
