I swapped mine to a front yamaha r6 520 sprocket and a race spec aluminum zx7 rear 520 sprocket and that saves a little weight and looks a lot better imho. I order from an ebat store as a R6 package and had him swap the rear sprocket for a zx. don't know if the kz and gpz (see sig) are the same sprocket bolt pattern, but I think they are. Works great! Good luck!

Thanks Brandon, that is good to know. I put in my order on Wed for new sprockets so I am going 530 for now, but when I get to change them out again I may be changing then.

what sort of sprocket sizes do dragbikes use ?

i dont want a dragbike - but with the speed limit being 50,60 and 80 km/h around here i want more acceleration than top speed .. not that fun riding fast either with so darn much wind threatening to throw me off :)

any suggestions to sizes ?
