I like the D.I.D. 530ZVM gold x-ring chain.
I also went up two teeth on the back sprocket.

Stock length will be fine for a one tooth drop up front.

Can't go wrong with the DID ZVM, I have one on my B12 right now. The chain prior to that was a DID VM which is a notch down in strength and price and it gave me ~25K miles of service.
