Default What is the absolute best chain I can buy?

So long story short, I bought a cheap chain and sprocket set for my 400EX last January and three months later, the chain is worn out. I need something that will last awhile, what do you guys recommend I buy? Also, will I need to change the sprockets on it again since the ones it has are so new?

What does fuel delivery have to do with the drive chain? If so, it is carbureted.

I don't think it really matters what type of induction system it has, unless you've gone to an aftermarket air filter.

How that? EFI has advanges but a increase in HP is not one of them.

Many motors switch over to EFI from carb but there power out put did not change.
