DUDE! Seriously, check with Jimmy! Supporting KR vendor!

Who is Jimmy? How do I reach him?

I completely forgot our own HS2020, good guy to buy from if he offers what you are looking for. I don't know how that happened. http://www.mopowersports.com/

And it looks like he is giving free shipping with coupon code "Katriders"

someofallparts.com (on ebay as well) has probably the best prices on chain and sprocket kits. $160 shipped I believe.

Tires for your use I would suggest Continental tires. You can get a set for around $200 - 225 shipped from places like http://www.ridedirect.com and they are real good tires. If your not going to be doing hard twisties riding, I would suggest the conti-force sport touring tires. They still hold the curves very well, but will last a little longer for the daily transite rides.

The temperatures are going up slowly here in NYC and I just got a new plastic card. I'm in need of new tires and looking for stock chain and sprocket kits. Does anyone know where I can get new but cheap chain and sprocket kits? Does anyone know of a good site for tires? My friend told me to go to eBay and I found Tire Express with free shipping. I'm not a big fan of eBay and don't want to pay $300 to $500 for tires. I need tire for everyday driving (to and from work and some highway).

Thank You All.

First thing you'll need to figure out is where you will be getting tires mounted. Not sure what the going rate is in the city, but you will find many shops that either will not mount tires from outside, or will charge double the normal M/B charges. As to ordering tires, I have ordered from both http://www.americanmototire.com and http://www.swmototires.com/ Prices are pretty similar, and if AMT is doing free shipping I will go with them. SW doesn't charge shipping on 2 or more tires, and they are drop shipped from the distributor.

Chain and sprocket set, RK/Vortex makes one, I think the last time I ordered one it was from Bike Bandit.

Try bikebandit or Denniskirk, I like motomummy too, not sure what they may have a for a kat though. Just remember, if you plan to have a shop change the tires, most will not do it unless you buy the tire from them.

UPDATE **** 4/3/2009


I took other person's advice and didn't go with Shinko tires, though the price is good and the driving I will do is in a way of stop and go. But safety first. You live once. Anyway, here is my next chose of tires:


Bridgestone Battlax BT-45 (V-Rated)

Front: 110/80 - 17 Front = $94.95
Rear: 150/70 - 17 Rear = $114.95


Let me know what you guys think. If these are good and the price is right, then I will place an order right now.

Also, I will order a RK Chain and Sprocket kit from a bike shop they are charging $170 for it and i will have them do all the work to the bike. Though I can do everything my self. I'd rather have them look the bike over. It wasn't running right during late fall and early winter.
