THE CHAIN ON MY 2001 WARRIOR IS SHOT. SHOULD I GET A NEW O.E.M. OR AN AFTERMARKET ? WHAT BRANDS ARE THERE AND WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE? SHOULD I CHANGE ANY THING ELSE LIKE THE FRONT SPROCKET? DUNE SEASON IS COMMING FAST!

What are the signs of a shot chain. I also have a 2001 and my chain is some what stiff but I keep it lubed with Maxxim chain wax.

Go for a D.I.D. Racing 520 X-Ring Chain. IT is awsome.

Never buy a new O.E.M. chain. Always aftermarket. If your chain is shot I'm sure the both sprockets aren't that good either. I never replace a chain without replacing both sprockets.

Gosh that chain didn't last long. I don't think on my nephew's 2000 warrior that he has never even adjusted his chain. I forget right now what brand of chain lube( comes out in a honey colored foam ) he uses but it sure is an oily mess back there. Chet

Really I have 99 Warrior and I am still using the factory chain. What are you people doing with your Warriors.
