Sprockets and chain

Hello. My sprockets and chain are Goosed.
I've bought the bits, just can't find the link I've seen to show us how to change them without cocking it up.

Please if you know of the link could u post.

Or if it near Preston lancs on Sat come and show us, I'll get the drinks in

Cheers
Dave

I've used a few chains over the years and tried different brands but go back to DID again :-)

XTZ750:
15417km DID 520 VM
6033km AFAM DC 520 MTX 114
28050km DID 530VM Gold
23099km DID 525ZVM Gold

XT600Z:
8087km RK 520 XSO
20440km DID 520VM k�de
19982km DC 520 MXO
9131km CZ 520 ORM
4125km CZ 520 ORM - broke the connecting link


I have (almost) always used automatic chain oilers and prefer gold plated chains to the don't rust on the outside (where not much oil is applied)

I would look at
71.90 € http://kedo.com/products/60204-110.html or maybe take the 525 variant
126.50 € http://kedo.com/products/91526.html
but 520 should be plenty strong enough that you wear out the sprockets (and then the chain)

I also have to replace the chain on the pony this winter or early spring. I'm undecided to whether to go with a 520 or 525 chain but since the DID520 lasted 20.000km on my XT600 i'll decide based on the price of a gold chain and sprockets. Won't pay more than 25% extra for the 525 as i don't expect it to last more than 25% longer so unless i find a better bargain than Kedo's current price i'll go with 520. But it is 100% sure that i will go with the endless !
