give B&C a call - they'll be able to help you out
you will be absolutely fine with an O-ring chain, but if you want to spend a bit more money (it sounds like you dont) get an x ring

£75 is damn cheap for C&S IMO, the set up from B&C costs £130 for my gixxer. What sort of chain are you getting for that money?
with c&s you do tend to get what you pay for to a certain extent. Cheap chains will wear quicker and therefore wont last as long.....
false economy ?

tbh i dont know what the chain is from the dealers, there were 4 set ups £75 being the cheapest and £100 being the dearest. i know the sprockets are adonized a bronzy colour but unsure on the chain.
You think i should go for the dealer setup

renthal sprockets are hard to beat, they are light weight too.
why skimp on something so important?
