Rear sprockets *usually* last about three times the life of front so you should replace the front at least.
Observation on chains - all manufacturers offer sealed chains be it O ring, X ring or some other profile. However when I replaced the chain on the KLR (and this was a first for me as I've had a shaft drive bike previously) the side plates were nice and tight, as befits the O ring, but the rollers were very loose on the pins, as there is no method of sealing the grease in the rollers. Does this imply the side plate seals are more of a marketing ploy than anything else?
Chain was lubricated every time the bike was ridden, often several times daily. Only lasted a little over 21000k
it's not a bad thing till you throw a KLR into the mix.
those cheap ass bitches can do anything with ductape.
