D.I.D Chains

D.I.D manufactures motorcycle drive chains for street bikes, dirt bikes and racing, along with related products like DirtStar rims. Its patented X-Ring and O-Ring sealing technology and high strength-to-weight ratio deliver longevity and measurable performance, and the chains are used in everything from everyday riding to MotoGP.

Made by Daido Kogyo and established in 1933, D.I.D is one of the largest and most respected chain suppliers in the world for both OEM and aftermarket. Its drive chains are manufactured in Kaga, Ishikawa, Japan, and riders choose D.I.D for proven durability and a long racing heritage.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between an X-ring and an O-ring chain? An X-ring seal has four contact points instead of two, so it holds grease longer and runs with less drag. O-ring chains cost less and still seal well for street and trail riding.

How do I choose the right D.I.D chain for my bike? Match the pitch, usually 428, 520, 525 or 530, and the link count to your bike, then pick the series that suits your power and riding style. Replacing the chain and sprockets as a set gives the longest life.
