    the time has come to change chain and sprockets. Ive just got the deemon tweeks catalogue and there seems to be a fair bit of choice. Are the upgraded Xtype such as DID etc worth the extra and are the Supersprox trimetal ones any good.
    What are you lot running, would appreciate some advice

    I usually go with the D.I.D. X Ring, never had any problems with them and find they're usually good for about 22,000 miles.......wheelies and spirited riding included! :D

    Plus one on the DID X Ring chain. Never had a Supersprox sprocket, I always use Renthal on my bikes.

    Had Tsubaki x ring chain and Supersproxs for nearly year now, guessing about 15k or so.
    Even through the salt and rain both are still like new. Hardly have to adjust it over that time. I do religiously relube every friday whilst the chain is still warm and totally clean and relube very first weekend of the month.

    Thanks for the advice folks.
    nambiker I think the chain guard is from the CBR1000rr.co.uk merchandise section of the site.
