that's the system I had on my ZZR600... loved it. I thought it was a good price

dReWpY · 10-17-2008, 04:13 PM

is that what you paid?

Mr Lefty · 10-17-2008, 04:17 PM

yup got it from there... they cut the chain to your required length so be aware the sprockets and chain sometimes ship separately.

but yeah that was the price for me... I was extreemly happy with them.

I would stick with a 530 chain for a 1000cc bike. How about Esjot sprockets in steel:http://www.spieglerusa.com/cfm/EsjotFront.cfm and RK 530 X-ring chain: http://www.ronayers.com/catalogs/pu/...d=101&type=300?

Thats the combo I like for the mountains on most big bikes.

Nah NW... the 520 will be fine on a inline 4. The only one I would worry about would be the v-twins with the 520. But I knew a guy that had a RC51 with 520 setup. But he ran steel sprockets as well.

520 alum is fine if you take care of chain and reframe from dropping the clutch.
