im going to renew my chain and sprockets, but it has a 525 chain and sprockets on atm but i can also buy the same kit but in a 520? would there be any benafits from getting the 520 kit?

[OnTheThrottleTV]

@TomBetteridge13 the 520 kit is lighter therefore the bike accelerates quicker having to move less weight. If it is just a street bike used for commuting etc you could stay with the 525 set up. If twisties and potentially track focused, the 520 is a great idea!

Random question well not really if you can't respond i understand but on most sports bikes with the front sprocket would i need to weld two cheap sprockets together or would i just need to buy another sprocket and mount on to the front sprocket and not use the cover. I am making a four wheeler that is 4x4 with a gsxr motor and that would save me time welding to just buy another sprocket. If you don't understand you wont hurt my feelings cheer m8 :-)

@airsoftman50 no idea why I just saw this post today. I have never heard of 2 sprockets being welded together, so I have no comment on the integrity of that design. Is it possible to mount a spacer and still use 1 sprocket to align the chain? Why the need for 2 - what chain pitch are you using?

@airsoftman50 you can actually buy double spockets or try a early polaris front sprocket set up they ran exactly what you are saying

@gsxr100100 To remove the cotter pin, bend both parts so that they are touching. You may need to get a pair of vice grips to get them close depending on how badly one or both of the pins were bent.

When the pins and lined up, grab the rounded end with pliers or grips and slowly work the pin upwards rotating at + then - 90 degrees. A really bent one you may have to tap it through with a small light flat head hammer. Flatten out once removed with a vice.
