a ? for the chain and sprocket experts

[CorvetteZ06]

hey guys, got a few questions. I got an "econo" chain kit for my 250R, and the chain seems to be stretching a lot. is this because its a cheaper chain? do o ring chains really resist stretching? should I go with sidewinder's premium chain and sprockets? Thanx so much for the info!

The price of chains and sprockets directly compares to how long they last. When you order a new chain you must also buy sprockets at the same time. I've never tried sidewinder but have read a lot of reviews and they seem to be great. I have great luck with the D.I.D 520 ATV X-ring with renthal sprockets. Never had a DNF and they usualy last the whole year on my race bike, and have to replace half way through summer on my trail/practice/ beater quad.
