You should be more specific on what type of riding you do. That more or less pays a huge role in what chain you buy. Same with horsepower. If you have a bike that is mostly stock...any reputable chain will be fine.

I use the DID X ring for riding in the dunes. It is the next step up in quality from the DID o ring chain that Yamaha puts on the bike . The correct size for a stock swingarm and stock gearing is 520X104 links. If you have a different swingarm or gearing it will change, if you are all stock and your old chain is only 103 links long, somebody has shortened your chain because it is wore out.

In my opinion, the only time you don't want an O- or X-ring chain is when you are racing(drag or other) and are trying to get maximum power out of the bike. It takes more power to turn a sealed chain than it does a non-sealed chain. As far as brands or grades,the more you spend the better the chain is so spend as much as you are comfortable with. One other thing I recommend is not to run an aluminum rear sprocket unless you are racing as they don't last very long. If you want to never buy another chain and sprocket buy the Sidewinder titanium alloy set, but they are VERY expensive. They also have less expensive grades and I have never heard anybody complain about their quality. Also, I did not have very good luck with RK chain but I was also using aluminum rear sprockets with it so that might have been part of the problem.
