Charged Advice
It's a well known motocross racing "secret" that an o-ring chain (OEM) has far more friction in it and robs you of power. You'll notice a nice little power increase with this non o-ring chain, perhaps even some range.
If you have a wide tire and you are struggling with chain clearance, here is a simple solution, install a non-o-ring chain which will provide about 1mm of extra clearance between the tire and chain. Be sure to use chain lube and keep your chain clean, without o-rings this is very important.
