I have to order a 68 link chain for some re-gearing I did and was wondering about something. I had a guy tell me I needed to tell the dealer 3 times and make sure they understood that I needed the "HYVO" chain for the '03 model. Is this right? Everywhere I look I don't see anything about this. Can someone tell me the part number of the proper 68 link chain for a '03 mountain w/ reverse? Thanks....I'm a little confused by this HYVO thing.
Also.....on a different note, 4 of us went out today in about 15" of new powder and the sled just absolutely rocked! The clutching, the gearing, the new M7 skid, everything is absolutely awesome. I love it! The guys I ride with have all three brands (Polaris RMK 700, AC M7, and Summit 800) and took mine for a spin and were totally impressed with the power and the way it handled. I thought that was pretty cool. The M7 guy even said "that things pretty intimidating all the way through"! They all really liked it. Anyways....sorry to ramble on, just excited!

3/4 HY-VO® YAMAHA (68L) Part Number 94890-09068-00
Common Names: Inverted tooth, Silent Chain, HY-VO®
HY-VO® Chain is a unique type of Silent Chain. HY-VO® stands for High Capacity, High Velocity, and Involute Tooth, and it is a registered trademark of Borg-Warner Automotive, Inc.
In Silent Chain, the pin and the plate rotate against each other. In HY-VO® Chains, the pin is comprised of two pieces that have rotational contact. Due to the rotational contact of the pins, the wear life of the chain is increased. Also in HY-VO® Chains, the contact point between the pins moves up when the chain engages the sprocket. This construction decreases chordal action (which was discussed in Basics Section 2.2.1), vibration, and noise.
