FX SVHO'15 preventing chain/timing failure

[mittens]

That's a 3/4 link 3 middle & 4 outside. That's the walk one.
4/5 is the 16 up one

Does this mean the 3/4 has less strength? Shall I keep inspecting visually and replace at some point? thank you

Yeah 3-4 is a weaker one i would assume. They upgraded to a stronger one for a reason in 2016. Some say leave alone. Some say replace. Upgrading can be a bit involved. New chain, new guides, and new cam gears. Im upgrading mine this spring for piece of mind. Idk if visually inspecting could do anything. Some saw a broken link and caught it in time. But some will tell you they checked the chain and 4 hrs later it snapped.
