Title: Best place to buy 14 tooth sprocket for S2R 1000 Post by: Gramps on June 19, 2008, 03:35:12 PM I want to have the 14 tooth sprocket put on at my 600 mile new bike service. Do I need to buy it and bring it to the dealer or is this something the dealer may have in stock? If I need to buy one where do you recommend?
Thanks for your help Gramps [wine] Title: Re: Best place to buy 14 tooth sprocket for S2R 1000 Post by: brimo on June 19, 2008, 04:21:21 PM monsterparts

There were _some_ reports on TOB of single sided swingarm bikes having excessive chain slider wear on top of the swingarm when switching to a 14t front, certainly not on all bikes and somewhat more prevalent on bikes with raised rear ride height, but also from one or two people who swore their bikes were bone-stock otherwise. big Title: Re: Best place to buy 14 tooth sprocket for S2R 1000 Post by: Capt baz on June 21, 2008, 06:22:18 AM i purchased mine from chris at ca-cycle works. he is well respected in business & for service.
