The factory DID O ring chain lasted about 12,000 miles. I replaced it with a DID X ring chain, and it has well pass 12,000 miles on it now. I did not replace the sprockets. I still have my stock sprockets on the bike. I did buy a set of JT sprockets, but have not had to install them yet. I will change chain and sprockets at the same time. X ring chain looks great still, with very little wear. I do not know why the X ring is lasting so much better than the 0 ring chain, but it just is.
