I have a front and rear JT steel sprocket with an EK 530 MVXZ X-ring chain and they have worked extremely well. As 92xjunker says, you really don't want to go with the cheapest option on chains.
I had a bad quality chain before and the fucker actually fell off when I did a hard break before a corner. Made me fall and slide.
EK, DID or RK for life.

Two things you Don't skimp on, chains and tires. Buy the best you can get, it will last much longer and be safer. Steel sprocket are always my choice.

Best combination I've found was 15/49 (although 49 is not easy to come by) Jt front sprocket, supersprox rear sprocket, DID vzmx 118 (my ride is a gsx600f '88)
Heard good thing about JT chains, was my first choice (price is awesome) but they could not deliver, so after 3 months waiting for the chain I went for DID

RK, EK, or DID X-Ring chains are your best bet. Shell out the extra cash for a good one. It will be cheaper in the long run. Look at some threads about breaking chains. They usually do more damage than you would expect.

Stick with a name-brand chain like a DID. I bought a cheapie chain from Ebay and it broke after 600 miles.

Why is this better? I really know nothing about this. I am having a very hard time finding a chain that fits the measurements that is made in Japan (the ones I find are China or Taiwan) and then the sprockets I find are steel alloy. Thanks for the help!
Edit: Thailand not Taiwan.

JT sprockets are I can't remember who produces their chains, so no comment. I'm pretty sure it's a quality co. Though

What are the thoughts for this one? It looks like it will fit; however, the front sprocket is a steel alloy and not just straight steel...Also it is an X-ring and not an O-ring chain.
