I always get infatuated towards the big bikes specially cruisers, Harley Davidson is being an iconic brand always had a special place in my life. My dream came true when I got my first Harley early this year, it was the Iron 889.

The drive chain of your motorcycle is often neglected while it is one of the most important parts of your bike as the power transmits from engine to the rear tyre through drive chain only. However there are other types of final drives also present like drive belts and drive shafts but chains are more popularly used in all types of motorbikes. The drive chains are more rampantly used throughout the World despite of its few drawbacks like it is more noisy, messy and requires relatively more maintenance.
