I can run an o-ring chain all season with very little maintenance, or a standard chain for the same time with lots of cleaning and oiling. On my 450 the ease of maintaining a sealed chain is worth the slight loss in power. Make sure you check case clearance with a sealed chain

That's what I bought to replace my stock KTM when the time comes. Heard great things with no clearance issues.

I been using these chains for at least 5 years now on all bikes, accept my 125”s. Vgood chains, after first stretch, they rarely need adjustment, I just spray silicone after washing, no chain lube at all. As stated, no clearance issues with front sprocket and rear chain guide, surprisingly light. I get about 25-30 hrs out of them on my 450”s, 30-35 on 250”s. If I used steel rear sprockets the chain would last even longer.
