  • Chain and sprocket conversion. 89 600

    I want to go 520. and stock gearing is 14/45?
    what are my choices? do 98+ set ups work? pre-98 750's?

    Ok, been looking around
    we found heat treated anodized 7075 T6 sprockets and a nice chain. 520
    going 13/47
    I know this is a big change, about 10% change in RPM's at a fixed speed
    but it might just give my kat that edge I'm looking for

    $110ish shipped for the 2 sprockets at BikeBandit
    $65ish shipped for the chain at MAWOnline

    13 tooth front 7075 T6 Afam 530-520 conv
    47 tooth rear 7075 T6 Afam 530-520 conv

    RKXSO 530 112 link chain

    sound good?

    The chain will last a long time, the sprockets will wear a bit quicker than hardened steel right?

      Sounds about right for what you are getting.

      That should definately give you more of an edge.
