I fitted the new chain and sprockets today and what a difference they make. The bike runs so much smoother than before.
One thing worth sharing is that I bought the RK chain cutting and riviting tool but broke the cutting pin and holder first time I used it. RK was good enough to send me new ones but I found out their tool works best if you grind down the pin that goes through the chain link before trying to cut it.
Thanks for all the help here.

Re: 80 Chain
The instructions that came with my chain breaking tool from Summit Racing say that you should grind down the rivets on all chains larger than 520.
