New chain time

Well, after 18k miles, I've finally reached that red zone on the swing arm. So, my questions are: Who makes a solid chain? Any particular o-ring style I should look for? Do I need to replace the sprockets as well? How much can I expect to spend?

Thanks.

Re: New chain time

I can't help you with the choice of chain for your bike but would definately recommend shopping around once you've made your choice.. I just replaced the one on my bike and got a DID X-ring chain, plus sprockets, from one supplier cheaper than others were selling the O-ring chain/sprocket sets for

And yes I would change the sprockets at the same time as the chain..
