Been out of the loop for a while and getting back on track very soon but I need to replace my chain and sprockets for my KX500 E16 . Would rather go with steel sprockets for longevity and I'm not scared about spending a few extra $ for decent product.
Advice /comments on suitable brands and what to avoid - pitfalls etc with current offerings ? .
Thinking of going Renthal sprockets and DID 520 O drive chain.
Cheers :-)

Supersprox steel sprockets will outlast Renthals, which are alloy, except for the $200 twinring.
I like the RK 520EXW xring chain personally. That and the supersprox stealth are what im currently running.

I would use a DID over a Renthall chain. X- ring chains have superseded the o-rings as they apparently have less friction but some how I don't see that as an issue in your case.

Ditto - kit seems to be lasting well.
