D.I.D Gold, intially I thought the gold color was a little too much bling, but I have discoverd it is easier to tell when it is dirty and needs to be cleaned. I'm now running it on all of my Ducati's. http://www.kneedraggers.com/list/1261 (http://www.kneedraggers.com/list/1261) is one source, I always get mine from the dealer. - Gene

Call Chris, he'll set you up with everything you need.  Much more than a store.

Went with Krause Racing's "Smart" chain and titanium II sprockets.  Chain is claimed to have a service life of 30k+ miles.  Sprockets are guaranteed for life :o 

Website has interesting info about drive systems whether you decide to buy their product or not.

I have had my drive system on for only 1,000 miles, so I can't speak of longevity, but the equipment is the definition of quality.  Customer service is excellent!

Pricey at first, but worth it in the long run, all sprockets are cut specific to your application meaning four weeks from order to delivery.

DID 520 ERV3
got it from gowanloch ... save yourself coin on shipping from US ... price similar to ours but considering the weight, you'll pay through the nose for shipping
