What chain & sprocket set?

Seiki · Admin

i dont buy chain and sprockets in kits cos usually you will get a decent chain and **** sprockets or vice versa

i would start with the chain and go for something either with a good name,renthal,did ect or i can recommend this one i have fitted this to my bike it cost 20.98 and its gold and a nice quality

Right cheers man ill have look at buying them sparate, I just wanted to get them cheaper and buying them separately means more money :).

have you got a bike repair place/shop near you? rear sprockets should only cost a tenner and around a fiver for the front add that to the 20 for the chain and it works out cheaper than some of the other options

although e bay is good dont always be fooled into thinking its always the cheapest sometimes a local bike shop is just as or even cheaper cos you save on postage

if your really skint i can check out my spare sprocket tomorrow and if its any good you can have it m8

Thank you mate my local Yamaha dealer are known to be rip off merchants, I have spoke to the staff and even they say its a rip off. Ill give them a phone tomorrow and see what they say, it was gonna coast 160 quid for a basic service and the guy couldn't even tell me what that included.

I might take you up on that sprocket mate im on the dole right now thanx for the offer.

yeh m8 a yamaha dealer will rip you off weve got loads of little bike shops round here some do repairs and some just sell spares,the only reason i buy stuff online is because i sell alot of gear on e bay so most of the time my spare cash sits in paypal so its easy but not always the cheapest plus i dont have to go out in the cold lol

i will check that sprocket out tomorrow m8 i honestly cant remember what condition its in so will have to see,failing that if youve got no spares shops by you i can get a price from one round ere and post it to you

put it this way if a rear sprocket for my gsxr costs less than a tenner then i recon a dtr one should biggrin
