    Anyone know if S&C carries master link clips?

    Need one for the SV this weekend, apparently it fell off at some point.... just need the clip. (unless there's a way of securing it w/o the clip using safety wire or something)

    Also wanna buy another one for the Tuono so I can remove one link.... chain's just a touch too long.

    Right in Woburn there is a hardware store that sell the links and clips. They have a good selection of links and sizes any thing you would need.

    I would imagine that is something that Miles has on hand, but I would shoot him a message. I am sure he will bring them for you.

    Re: Anyone know if S&C carries master link clips?

    Bring your chain with you, as all the master links are different. For the record, I've never seen just the clips listed as parts anywheres so I think you'll end up getting a whole new link.

    Edit: Speaking of S&C, will they be at the track Wed? (Carl's school)

    No clip, just safety wire? I thought of that, but when I heard of people safety wiring it I thought the clip was there as well.

    I'm sure it's simple enough but I'll have to ask someone to show me exactly how they do it.

    Pete, you've been racing long enough to know you don't need no stinkin master link, or clip, or whatever. Zip tie each end of the chain together, der.

    Re: Anyone know if S&C carries master link clips?

    Uh yea bro. Should have the clip on there and then wire/epoxy the clip on...
    You wanna mess with your chain flying off? I've had the safety wire break on my chain before as well... so no clip and no wire = boom.

    Re: Anyone know if S&C carries master link clips?

    Eh, I'm new to the whole clip master link thing... only had rivets up until now. I've heard of saftey wiring and/or epoxying them but haven't seen the job done in person.

    And apparently I already flirted with disaster cuz I never even noticed the clip wasn't on there until I got the bike home from the last race weekend

    Re: Anyone know if S&C carries master link clips?

    i just put the safety wire on like a clip so its in the grooves where the clip would go. i keep checking it as its the first time ive tried it but it seems to be working and Heaths hasnt fallen off yet and we all know what kind of mechanic he is

    Oh... well if Heath does it, I'll make sure to get someone to weld it on.

    Pete, I'll have a rivet tool with me this weekend if you decided not to go with the clip-type link.

    Chains?

    Imagine a daisy-chain of 20 zip-ties looped ever so gracefully around the front and rear sprockets.....yeah, that's right......no joke.
