KAWASAKI ZX [2016-2021] - Z-ring chain

The Regina 525 HPE Z-ring chain with rivet link sets new standards in motorcycle technology. This advanced chain eliminates the need for regular lubrication that motorcyclists typically have to do every 1,000 km. Thanks to the innovative and revolutionary Z-Ring technology paired with the High Performance Endurance (HPE) design, this chain offers a service life that is at least equal to, if not greater than, that of a traditionally regularly lubricated Z-Ring chain.

A special feature of the Regina 525 HPE chain is the coating with Tetrahedral Amorphous Carbon (ta-C), one of the most advanced forms of DLC (Diamond Like Carbon) coatings. This coating is applied to the surface of the bushings and rollers and reduces energy losses while increasing efficiency in the secondary drive. The extremely high hardness of the coated surface combined with a low coefficient of friction results in improved performance and longevity.

Eliminating the need to clean and lubricate the chain also minimizes environmental impact. Developed through intensive research and development by Regina engineers in Italy, this technological innovation promises a revolutionary change in the maintenance and performance of motorcycle chains.
