Hayabusas use a 530 chain...that is some testimonial to the durability of
this chain.

YOU ARE PLAYING WITH FIRE !!  Make sure your sprockets and chain match, or
you are going to have a major problem very quickly.  Do NOT ride with a
mismatch like that.

If your sprockets are in good shape, then changing the 532 chain is the
easiest to perform, but this is a very expensive chain (usually over $200).
If you want to change to 530, then the chain is about $100-120, and the
sprockets will add about $80-100 more.

So you can go to a 530 for about the same cost as just the 532 chain.  There
used to be a strength difference, where the 532 was stronger, but 530's have
greatly increased to the point that this is no longer a factor.  The top of
the line 530's are now stronger than whatever is still available on 532.
Additionally, 532's were rarely used, and are no longer used on new bikes
(to my knowledge).
