Does anyone know what the difference is between a X link chain and the chain that is on the GZ? (My Bonneville has the X link)
Thanks!

The x-link chain has less contact area on the side plates resulting in less friction and heat.They also have double seals to keep dirt and moisture out of the rollers.

They are almost twice as expensive as a o-ring chain.

X-rings may cost a few bucks more but I highly doubt a 2 x's factor. Do a few pricings on some online vendors to shop and compare.
