Why Upgrade?

Factory primary chains on FLT and FXR models were designed for moderate power levels and often show their age after decades of service or when paired with performance modifications. The S&S Heavy-Duty Primary Chain is built to withstand the increased demands of big-bore engines, aggressive camshafts, and the rigors of long-distance touring or aggressive riding. This upgrade eliminates chain noise, reduces slop in the drivetrain, and provides peace of mind whether you're restoring a classic FXR or keeping a vintage touring machine reliable for the long haul.
