the one on the sv has 18k on it and looks fine and no stiff links, just treated it to some of the new castrol racing lube

i want a new chain because it looks naff but if i do get one i want a supersprox rear sprocket and they are ££ so thats putting me off getting one and the fact i dont need one lol
