Renthal chain and sprockets

Post by Colette »

I need a new chain and sprockets very soon and a mate is getting me a discount on a Renthal set for my ZZR600.

Just wondering if anyone has used them before and what you think of them?

i'm on my 3rd renthal rear, i only used a front renthal the first time and have used a sunstar the last two times.

I found the sprocket to still be in excellent condition by the time the chain was cactus (25-30K) and i get them at a good price as well, makes all the difference.

and best of all - THEY LOOK TRICK :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Seriously though, it looks pretty good - can't wait to get mine done.

using rec retail prices it would be

Chain = RK530XSO Gold $260+ :shock: (not sure how much extra the gold ones are)
Front Sprocket = sunstar 16T $30 odd 8)
Rear Procket = Renthal 41T $93

obviously thats not what i paid 8) thank christ :roll:
