C Y C L E N E W S • AUGUST 9, 2006 51 S T U F F S T U F F S T U F F MOOSE RACING 520 RXP X-RING CHAIN $114.95-125.95 www.mooseracing.com Lord of the X-Rings Moose Racing says that its new 520 RXP X-Chain - with "X-Rings" to reduce friction - is the ultimate chain for off-road racing. Made of high-tensile strength nickel-plated inner-link plates and high-tensile, rust-resist- ant, gold-plated side plates, the chain has an extended service life and can withstand the rigors of off-road racing. The vacuum-injected greased chain also features heavy-duty high-carbon alloy pins, extended solid bushings, and solid rollers to ensure long life and easy wear on sprockets. An extra master link included; replacement master links available separately. Handy Stand Handy Industries says that its new BMW Hollow Hub Rear Wheel Stand will make BMW wheel maintenance and removal much quicker and easier. The stand is adaptable for right- or left-handed single- sided swingarms, and won't ding or nick expensive hubs thanks to a removable two-inch-diameter nylon pin. Fabricated of one-inch and one-half-inch heavy walled square tubing with black powder- coated finish, the stand is 20-inches wide and has four adjustable pin heights of 16, 17, 18 and 19 inches. FMF FACTORY 4.1 SYSTEM $799.99-899.99 18033 South Santa Fe Avenue Rancho Dominguez, California 90221 310/631-4363 www.fmfracing.com Version 4.1 FMF Racing has been in the business for over 30 years and all the knowledge and experience gained over those last three decades has gone into making the Factory 4.1 exhaust system. The 4.1 is FMF's lightest full system available, and yet it still provides plenty of power and performance, with horse- power improvements throughout the rpm range. The system features the FMF exclusive Chamber Core and PowerBomb technology, and with the company's Factory Forward Engineering, it central- izes mass and improves handling. The exhaust system features titanium endcaps, midpipe and Power- Bomb header with an option of a titanium or carbon muffler. Customizable with performance tuning inserts and spark-arrestor module. The pipe meets AMA sound requirements on most models, with inserts available for others.
