    i got 20k out of a cheap o ring chain from a bearing specialist on my cb250rs,and i worked in a quarry at the time.
    in hind-sight it was a good chain.

    My bike came with a ScottOiller and the original chain lasted for 29000 miles.
    On older bikes years ago I used to clean the chain with the grease bath but the chains were not as well made as they are now.
    YOU ONLY NEED TWO TOOLS IN LIFE - WD-40 AND DUCT TAPE. IF IT DOESN'T MOVE AND SHOULD, USE THE WD-40. IF IT SHOULDN'T MOVE AND DOES, USE THE DUCT TAPE
