Where did you get chain & sprockets ?
Gots da red death.
Before shopping too much thought I'd ask you fine fine Gentlemen what you run and where you got it.
Have a number of internet suppliers I use but knowledge is King so I'm asking to steal yours.
Just for street, stock swingarm.
Currently running a 16t but also open to suggestions on gearing.
Might return to stock to get speedo right. I'm too cheap to buy a speedohealer. just did the calculations and ride accordingly while in town.
And yes I did a search......,lol, But would like some fresh input.

motorsport.com gives a discount when buying a d.i.d. chain and a vortex rear. i tried a 16t vortex counter shaft sprocket but quickly went back to the oem because the vortex made alot of noise and i liked the factory gearing better for street riding. any future gearing changes will be done at the rear only. i still use a speedohealer because the speedo is not very accurate even with stock gearing.

Try these guys, usually lowest price & good selection of sizes. Go steel on the rear for longer life.

i recently got an EK ZZZ 530 150 link chain for 188 to my door from e-bay.. That was the best deal i could find at the time. And i usually go to bikebandit for the sprockets. They have some decent promotions going on from time to time. I have not looked in a little while tho. And i am also still sitting at stock gearing currently.

D.I.D. Gold series X-Ring is all I run on my street rides -- and I always go for steel sprockets, but I'm not gearing my bike all that much either.
