Changed the original chain & sprockets last night, chain was getting tightspots, and setting the chain slack at the tight spot meant I was getting about 50mm slack at the loose spots!
Used one of those cheap ebay breaker/riviter tools (about £12) and everything went well, soft link flared out and tool didnt break.
I went for JT sprockets (with the rubber damped front sprocket) and DID Xring chain, so about £100 all in including tool.
Hopefully this will last as long as the OE chain & sprockets
Photos below, the front sprocket was very worn, although the rear looked fine
