I have a 94 cbr f2 & I want to install front and rear sprockets & a 520 chain. I have never done this before and I want to know how hard it is & what is envolved? Is there anyway I can break the chain with out the chain breaking tool? Any tips would be appreciated.

 

grind the chain off, run the JT +8 sprocket (its strong and dirt cheap) and if ur interested in a like new 15t front sprocket pm me. U will want a chain tool to install the new chain, ul need that grinder to cut the new chain to length too.

 

thanks man but I already bought teflon coated vortex sprockets. I don't have a grinder so is there anyway to get around that? & how big of a job is it?

 

you need a way to cut the excess links off the chain, gotta dremel? it might take a while.its an easy job, but Ive been a bike wrench for 7 yrs.

 

no power tools at all
looks like I might have to take it to the shop.
how many hours tops would it take a good machanic?

 

yea thats what you should do, few mins,and get some tools

 

why 520?

 

you could buy a cheap grinder for less than a shop would charge ya...come on man use your head

 

good point


my guess though would be no tools = not mechanically inclined ... but chain and sprockets is easy

 

i got my 4 1/2" angle grinder 2 years ago fir $9.99 just needed it for one little job expecting it to fall apart and be a piece of ****....been an awesome tool i use it a couple times a week got tons of power still waitin for it to take a **** though but when it does im gonna spend another 10bucks and get the same thing

 

I don't have that many tools & I didn't know a grinder was that cheap. I guess I'll go buy a cheap grinder & give it a try myself! SO I just grind of access links, & connect the new end to the master?

 

I didn't know that much about stunting & chains when I bought this set up. I was told by a friend that the 520 chain I bought was like 5 times stronger than stock.

 

damn $10, not bad

was gnna recommend this black and decker I got at walmart for $25.. i'v used that thing for SOOOO much **** its worht $100 to me
(cut MANY chains, cut MANY parts for my car, and let MANY people borrow it)

 

Got em on today. Took my buddy and I a while but finally got it. There on and with -1 and +8 sprockets I can bounce up 4th gear on my F2! I absolutely love these sprockets. Thanks for all your help!

 

kragen auto parts got the grinder for $20, dont go too hard or it'll stall out from the pressure
