Before I became an AT convert, I rode an XTZ660. The chain I had on
there was a DiD VM520 x-ring chain. It did 14,000 miles (about
22,500km). I don't have a Scottoiler but I did lube the chain every
morning before my 110mile (170km) round-trip to work. In 14,000 miles,
the chain needed no adjustment!
