Replacement chain and sprockets 800GS

[tim dew]

Hi, my chain has been making some strange noises recently although it has been looked after by my scottoiler since new I think it has come to the end of its life (12,000 miles)

My BMW dealer is quoting £156 for a replacement chain and sprockets.


Can anyone recommend an alternative ?

My bike was not part of the chain recall

thanks in advance

If you go down the self-fit option you will need a chain riveter. You could choose a chain with a split pin but this is your choice.

I did my girlfriends F650. Total cost for a chain (DID X ring) and riveter tool was about £110. Didn’t do the sprockets as the bike had only done 1500 and they looked like new. So £156 for both seems like a good price, but what quality chain will they put on... another chocolate one maybe...

Cheers

D.I.D IT!

Brand new bike,prior to collecting,had Ocean junk the BMW chain and fit the D.I.D X ring I had prepared earlier.Fitting gratis,as was the Scottoiler that they fitted for me at the same time.I know it seems a bit paranoid,but the peace of mind is worth every penny of the 100quid the chain set me back.
