New Chain - Preferred brand and Rivet vs Master Link/Clip

Looking at replacing my first chain ever between now and next year's TransLab/Newfoundland trip.
525 chain on BMW F700GS (116 Link)

What brand(s) do you like?
Best on-line retailer or do you use a local shop?
Do you always replace front and rear sprockets at the same time?
(Do you buy a chain and sprocket "kit"?)
Rivet or Master link with clip?
Do it yourself or MC shop?
What rivet tool do you use if you use a rivet link and DIY?

(Should we discuss maintenance frequency and lube products?)
