I run a 520 set up with my under powered 1361. I use a steel in front and Titan tough Aluminum in the rear. Sprocket Specialties offers Titan Tough as a option. Some kind of Aluminum hardening process. Worth the $10 buck upcharge in my book.
I would be suspect of MadMike. He only rides on the weekends!!!! Low miles too I'll bet!

Mike... PMFR? Do they have a website or is there an particular distributor you recomend on the PMFR sprocket. The sprocket looks pretty nice. If I read the photo corectly it appears you are running a Masterlink with a clip and not a peened master. Is that corect? What's the red spot for on the chain?

I called them direct, but I dont have the # handy check out dragbike.com and look under the equipment section/parts, I cant rember what exactly it is but look at the top right of the page, oh there not cheap or for the timid. I have around 130 bucks in mine including having it polished, but it looks bad azz and they are made for drag bikes, or stock wheels. and I am runninga Tsubaki Sigma chain, and I actually have two master links, if you look close you will see a red dot and a black one next to each other, that is silicon to hold my clips in place so they wont fall/pop off, I have to replace my silicone every couple of races, I have had nothing but good luck with this set up! and if I want to change my gearing out it is alot easier! with diffrent chain lengths.
