Fitted the new chain but had an issue with the rivet link breaking up on me when I put the riveter tool on it, rang the seller and he sent me 2 new ones straight away free of charge. All fitted and working now the old chain on inspection was well goosed, the gearbox feels soo much sharper now and a much smoother ride in general.
