Frequently asked questions
Here are some of the most common questions we receive at East Point Enduro. We've compiled these to help you navigate our range of enduro and motocross parts and services with ease.
What oil should i use in my bike?
Choosing the right oil for your bike depends on several factors, including the make and model of your bike, the type of riding you do, and the manufacturer's recommendations. We stock a wide range of Motorex oils and fluids and LIQUI MOLY products to suit various needs.
1. What type of oil is best for my enduro or motocross bike?
For off-road riding, we recommend using a high-quality synthetic oil that matches your bike’s specifications. At Eastpoint Enduro, we’ve got a range tailored to different brands and models.
2. How often should I change my oil?
Regular oil changes are key to engine health. For enduro and motocross bikes, we suggest changing the oil after every 10 to 15 hours of riding, depending on how hard you’re pushing it.
3. Can I use the same oil for both my motocross and enduro bikes?
Absolutely. Many high-quality oils are versatile enough to handle both disciplines, as long as they meet the specifications recommended by your bike’s manufacturer.
Will this fit my bike?
Ensuring the parts you purchase fit your bike is a top priority. Please check the product description carefully for compatibility information. If you're unsure, our team at East Point Enduro are happy to help. Provide us with your bike's make, model, and year, and we'll confirm whether the part is suitable. We also have a returns policy should you encounter any issues.
What size chain and sprockets?

🏍️ What Chain Fits My Bike? Complete Guide for Riders
Choosing the right chain for your bike is essential for performance, reliability, and safety. Whether you ride enduro, motocross, trail, or road, this guide will help you quickly identify the correct chain size, link count, and type for your machine.
🔧 1. Understanding Chain Sizes (520, 525, 530)
Motorcycle chains are identified by a three‑digit number:
| Chain Size | What It Means | Best For |
|-----------|----------------|----------|
| 520 | Narrower, lighter chain | Enduro, MX, trail, performance |
| 525 | Stronger, slightly heavier | Adventure, road, dual‑sport |
| 530 | Heavy‑duty, high‑torque bikes | Big road bikes, cruisers |
Most enduro and MX bikes use 520 chains.
🔩 2. How to Know What Chain Fits Your Bike
To find the correct chain, you need:
- Chain size (e.g., 520)
- Front sprocket teeth
- Rear sprocket teeth
- Correct link count
These vary by bike model, year, and gearing setup.

For Eastpoint Enduro customers, X‑Ring is usually the top choice.
🔗 5. How to Measure Your Chain
If you’re unsure what’s on your bike:
1. Check the markings on the chain (e.g., “520”).
2. Count the number of links.
3. Check your sprocket sizes.
4. Compare with your bike’s manual or our fitment chart.
❓ 6. Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if my chain is worn?
Look for tight spots, rust, stiff links, or if the chain lifts off the rear sprocket.
Can I change my gearing?
Yes — but changing sprocket sizes may require a different link count.
Should I replace chain and sprockets together?
Yes. A worn sprocket destroys a new chain quickly.
