Looking at sprockets and thinking of going with sick or thrust

 

Also what I was thinking is what is the advantage/disadvantage with a 520 chain or 525?

I'm so use to 525

 

I rock 530..... Stronger, Lasts longer, Better response, Just a better set up all around IMO......

 

but for a 03 636

but after hitting the search button I looked at hohey they do 525 also

 

I don't know about the 636... I had 530 on the gsxr, so when I got the f4i I did the same and I love it.... Im sure someone that knows more than me will chime in pretty soon... Im just going off of experience... I don't know to much about mechanics....

 

Go with a Thrust 525 kit. If you have clearance for a 530, go for it, its a stronger chain and wont stretch as much. 520 kits are a waste, I have 2 buddies that bought 520's with the biggest Vortex kits available at the time and they were lucky to get 3000 miles of street riding before they were cutting links out of the chain. 520 is for roadracing, its lighter - less rotating mass. for what we do it doesnt make a bit of difference.... go with the chain that will last longer!

 

Dude I ****** LOVE your signature!!! hahahahahahahahah

 

See and thats what I thought about 520 so thats scratched

 

525 or 530 if you have the space, and your golden..

 

ive run 520s on all my bikes and i never had a problem with stretching or premature wear. a 530 however is stronger and will last longer in the same set of circumstances. but no problems with my bikes, i put anywhere from 12 to 18k miles a year on my bikes with no broken teeth stretched chains.

 

Yeah, 520 is fine if your just gonna putt around ^^, but for us people that really RIDE our bikes, they are to weak...

I'm just kidding -Neil!! Be gentle...

 

putt around? i run jet fuel in my bike

 

520 stainless

 

you JUST NOW saw that?

 

so if I go to the 53-55 in the back can I just get the 120 link or do I need more

 

Nah, just wanted to let ya know... Made me laugh for the millionth time today...

525 or 530... Forget about 520....
