There have been many posts on the Amplink....The general Idea is to get the power delivered to the rear wheels in a more linear fashion. Thus, eliminating the power robbing chain lash that is present with the stock rollers.

In my opinion...Not worth the trouble,,,it's costly. And I had bad luck with it on my banshee.
A warrior might handle the mod a bit better. But it was costly for replacement bearings.

Many people like it....many don't...If you have money to spend, give it a try....But I don't think you will see a huge difference in holeshots. Maybe....But for me...thats yet to be seen.If you want faster holeshots...drop a tooth on the front sprocket...But you will loose a bit on top.


good luck

My riding buddy had an AMP link on his 250R and he said it was one of the biggest wastes of money he has bought.

Yea, I've heard more negative things about it than positive things....does it take the place of the chain rollers?? do you take them off?

Don't waste your effort! It doesn't do a damn thing except break all the time. Mine cost me a trashed out countershaft bearing and worn out chains & sprockets, as nothing lined up. Didn't find out until too late. It also makes the drive system extremely noisy. What a joke. Undoubtedly the biggest waste of money in existance. Ever wonder why you don't see any of the racer's use them???
