Default Chain question

I snap my chain earlier today when I test out my pred. I guess the predator has so much power, it snap the chain.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] So, I need a new chain but I don't know how many links does the predator chain have. I have a service manual, but it does not tell how many links. It just tells you that it's a 520 o-ring chain. So, if you guys can please tell me how many links does the predator chain have, that would be great. Also, what brand would you guys suggest me to get for my pred. Thanks.

Well if you really want ,"WHAT I BELEVE", to be the best chain and sprockets on the market,
go with SIDEWINDER http://www.sidewindersprockets.com/

They are costly but they are made to be the LAST chain and sprockets you will EVER buy.

As for the # of links, If I am reading Partland corretly (94 pitch)
37 tooth rear sproket
14 tooth front sprocket

how long have you had your pred???
polaris carries a 1 year warrenty on chains... my broke and snapped my case after 9 months... polaris covered it all.
so if its been less than a year... bring it to your dealer and get a new one for free...
