Default Chain changing

OK- all my parts are on order now. Biggest single expense was the chain break/press/rivet tool. Found deals on the sprockets and chain though.

Motion Pro Jumbo Chain Tool $133
RK XW 520 120link Chain: $75
SunStar Countersheft Sprocket 15tth: $14
SunStar Rear Sprocket 46tth: $43
K+N Gold Oil Filter: $13

Total: $280

I found the tool for $120 somewhere else, but the chain was $116 at Kneedraggers, and $90 something at Ron Ayers, so the few extra dollars on the tool were offset. I had planned to get the XR ring from Ron Ayers, but found the "premium" XW for $3 more at Chaparral. And Bike Bandit has the sprockets for $53/$28. I actually ordered them through the dealer for less! (and no shipping) For orders over $149, Chaparral has free two day shipping- so I figure that offsets any saving I could have had by buying everything different places. I better never have to replace that tool, so future replacements should be much less expensive.
