I just fitted,
Sprocket Rear - Steel - Less 1 Tooth x 1
Sprocket Front Plus 1 Tooth x 1 (from wemoto.com)
i replace with the (stock) ones on my bike, dont know if they was the stock ones or not as only had the bike a little while, but when the front sproket came, it fitted fine, but it wouldnt spin as the Teeth where about 1-2mm to long and they was catching on the engine mount, i grinded about 2mm off each tooth, and smoothend the edges back to original shape. i took 1mm of the teeth to allow the sproket to spin freely, and i took another 1mm off to allow for heat expantion, as i dont want the teeth digging into the engine mount if they expand in the heat.

i was cruising 60mph-ish @ 8500rpm in 5th gear on old sprokets (if i went flat out into the red would just about pull of 65-70 reving the nuts off it)

with my new sprokets i am cruising at 60mph @ just under 7000rpm in 4th gear!! and can happly cruise at 70mph now in 5th gear @ 8000rpm give or take(does take a little while to get to 70mph and wind does affect you), i notice its gained more mid-high power(almost like a powerband now) and can feel a big diffrence when pulling away, but its not straining the bike, but u do notice the diffrence when u pull away.

im chuffed to bits i can now cruise on the by-pass at the speed limit :) rather then %&#!¤ing people off cruising at 50-55mph, i feel alot safer now at the speed limit, not as many cars over take me now, pushin me to the side of the road


hope this helps you man
