HONDA XL 700 V TRANSALP [2008-2013] - Z-ring chain

The Regina 525 HPE Z-Ring Chain with Rivet Link sets new standards in motorcycle chain performance and durability. Thanks to its innovative technology, this advanced chain no longer requires regular relubrication, making it ideal for motorcyclists who value low maintenance and efficiency. Regina's Z-Ring chain eliminates the need for lubrication every 1,000 km, which not only saves time but also reduces maintenance costs.

Extensive testing both in the laboratory and on the road has proven that the HPE chain has a lifespan at least as long, if not longer, than traditional, regularly lubricated Z-ring chains. A special feature of this chain is the coating with tetrahedral amorphous carbon (ta-C), one of the most advanced coatings in the DLC (Diamond Like Carbon) group. This coating is applied to the surface of the bushings and rollers and reduces energy losses while increasing efficiency in the secondary drive.

The very high hardness of the coated surface combined with a low coefficient of friction results in improved performance. Additionally, the elimination of chain cleaning and lubricant splash during operation helps minimize environmental impact. The development of this innovative coating process was carried out through intensive research and development work by Regina engineers in Italy. The Regina 525 HPE Z-Ring chain is an excellent choice for motorcyclists who place the highest demands on the performance of their machine.
