Default chain rollers or amp link?

Well, as far as $ go, the stock roller is much (did I say much?) cheaper. As far as the amp link goes, I put one on my '92 warrior. I loved how it softened up the suspension. And like the Dirtwheels' review said, it does help get more power to the ground. My only complaint was in the noise generated by the steel sprockets on it. Man, after a day of riding, you can still hear em even while yer layin in bed tryin to go to sleep. Well, maybe it wasn't that bad, but it was the noisiest thing on my bike. My buddies could tell if it was me coming back to the campground.

Hope this helps at least a smidge.

Ride on.

I had one on my Warrior a while back too and I liked it too but it did cost a pretty penny! I'm not gonna get another one unless they get cheaper, I don't think they help as much as they are worth. About the noise...ya, they are noisy! I had to oil my chain at least 3x more than before to keep the noise down. I really noticed it more when i was turning sharp and putting pressure on the chain.
