I lack less than 100 miles of 27,000 miles on the stock chain/sprocket set up. I cant imagine needing anything more than a quality Oring chain for our bike. Wanting X ring? Sure, needing it? Not so much to me.

People have gotten 25-30,000 miles with the OEM chain.
With proper maintenance and care you could get more or the same with an X or XW ring chain.
