I've never witnessed a chain fail using connecting links either.

I have, a few times with half links, with devastating results this was an 83 pitch Regina,in a TV200 Casing,Mallory Park flat-out in 4th round Gerards!
I've also had an Iwis let go on my road bike, the type with the black half link snap on route back from Kelso rally, also know of several other Iwis with black links snapping.
I have never had a chain that has been assembled with either split links, half links, one-&-a-half links or riveted by myself with the correct tooling fail. I acquire chain by the box, usually Renold.

Maybe you've just not had enough BHP to? Sorry couldn't resist, stay safe!

Yes we are winning races,championships and endurance events, bloody hard work as you well know.
I actually meant how are you doing personally because you were doing Group Four, weren't you?

Half a mile was seeing what the jetting was like straight out of the box, which was horribly rich then half a mile home. The other mile was after I had rejetted it properly and give it a good handful. It snapped and wrapped around the front sprocket twisting the crank. I then had to push it home.
I hate scooters.
