Help on 15 tooth front sprocket

stedo · 02-03-2008, 4:40 PM

Hi everyone
Im trying to get a 15 tooth front sprocket for my sp1.
ive tried three times with my parts dealer but keeps giving excuses as to not getting one. Does anybody know if one off a blade or other bike fit.

Thanks

yessir, one from a fireblade will fit.

order one for a 954 or 929. Shyt, a 600 sprocket will fit too. Your dealer sucks for not knowing that. Go to another dealer with ur money.

Thanks for the offer mate, but I live in the UK so it'll take a while to get here.

That is too small and will put extra strain on the output shaft and wear out the chain a lot faster.

70% of my customers with RC51 go 1- front +1 rear and 20% go with -1 front +2 rear. I run 15-41 520 and it is around a 14.5% optimistic reading on the speedo and you will loose around 11MPH top end but the bike will still run 4800RPM at 80MPH with a speedo healer.

thanks mate for reply think il change it back to a 15

what about a 520 chain? should i make that drasitc of a jump or just stick to a 530 or 525? im looking at doing a 15-44 set up for the twistys and keeping my 14-42 for commuting
