Chains, which one to buy?

Uzi9mm:
What kind of Sidewinder sprokets and chain do you have Stewart?

dirtjunkie85:
Renthal, Regina, DID, and especially Sidewinder are all good just make sure you get one with a high tensile strength for the K5.
I've found some pretty good prices here
motorcycle chain

Goat:
Put some superglue on it and go  :-P

High tensile strength is what really matters honestly. I've always used DID, Renthal, and Sidewinder on all my bikes. Broke a few DIDs but haven't broke a Renthal or Sidewinder yet. I like Sunstar sprockets for the front and I always use a steel JT or Renthal sprocket in the rear.

Polar-Bus:
I've gone through a LOT of chains in the past 26 years, cheap roller, o-ring, x-ring, and every brand in between. By far the most impressive chain as far as overall value is the Regina ORN6 !!  One TOUGH chain. I have the Regina on both my KX500, and my YZ450F. One fact when you run a premium quality chain is your sprocket life literally will triple in usage... so this aspect makes it a no brainer why you should anti-up the bucks and buy a premium chain.

For me the best chain has been the RK brand. I have had very good results with them
