2015 DL650XT Chain

[Fish99]

Hi all,
I hope I have posted this in the right section.

The chain on my 2015 650XT is due for replacement and I was wondering if someone could advise me which chain to buy...length etc. Been looking around but its baffling me if I am being honest. I am in need of the chain and also sprockets. 

I have bought DiD in the past for my old Gixxer and was happy with that brand.

So any help  and advice would be very much appreciated.

I put a DID on mine last year & JT sprockets, including the rubber cush one......

Think I have found the right chain on that site so many thanks. Funny enough I just saw those rubber cushioned front sprockets. What is the purpose of the rubber ones over the standard all metal sprockets.

You can give them a ring and ask just to be sure.
This is the information on their site re the sprocket .....................

The OEM is rubber cushioned so you're changing like for like.

Thanks for your help. I have ordered what I think is right. I have left message in order telling them what bike I have. Just got to find someone to fit it now.
