Sprockets are correct, 112 link 530 chain. Use DID, RK or EK o-ring or x-ring chain. GSXFJim makes sprockets PM him with what you want."I'm sorry, I didn't mean to upset you when I called you stupid. I thought you already knew..."

Jim makes the sprockets and I can get you a chain.I suggest the EK SRX Chain. It holds up the best on the kats IMO.Comment

Stock is 14/45, you can bump up to the 47 in the rear to give you a bit more off the line acceleration, but that depends on if you're doing a lot of commuting or canyon riding. Ek is a good chain, don't cheap on chains, ever.http://www.7thgeardesigns.com

Just replaced my chain and sprockets on my '95 GSX600f. Used an RK X-Ring chain, and got it for $85 on eBay.

It fit perfectly. It is a rivet type chain 530x112 link, so like I learned the hard way, make sure you have the tools on hand to complete the job. Wasn't terribly difficult, just took a little time. Took me more time as well, because I cleaned up a bunch of stuff while I had things apart (under the cover where the front sprocket is, greased the rear axle, etc.).
Great write up on doing the job yourself by steves http://katriders.com/vb/showthread.php?t=108832Comment
