Sprocket - General Enquiry

[skateboy]

changing of sprocket size will affect the fuel consumption so do think twice b4 u change the size of ur sprocket...

 

 

 

need to ask oso... O-ring or X-ring chain r better?? in terms of durability. thanx...

 

 

[Ah James]

I am using Afam...with DID O ring... clock for more than 20000km liao... then chain gt tighten b4... but the sproket... according to my mech... he also ask him how come my sprocket like new?! He sae can easily another 15000km..... but chian wise... he sae max another 10000km...

 

How i take care is to lube it every 1 full tank petrol comsued lo... nothing liao.. no rust on my chain at all... many biklers which i met on rd praise my clean chain and shiny GOLD sprocket!!!

 

Damn worth it!!! 100% gurantee....

[Dscheng]

Ya, i will knw it will affect the FC.

Orginal Spocket is 44 i think ...

 

Yeah Engine oil is damn good for oil-ing ur chain . Been using that always . I used either left over oil from ma oil change , sometimes collect e old oil can be reuse also . Thou it fling , but if you do not over-oil or what , its perfectly fine . If e engine oil dont hurt ur engine , i dont think it would hurt ur chain ...

a scotoiler will make ur chain last longer while...

when ur chain is still loose after tighten..ur mechanist will know this

then it's time to change liao

I believe OEM honda spockets is more recommended rite...to keep it stock i guess..

hve not used AFAM so no comments.......

but i believe in keeping my super4 stock in this sense...

AFAM wITh X chain is $180 at HKL i think...

n OEM honda with x chain is 230-250 depending on shop u visit..

 

as for chain, my fren n i truthfully believe in X chain..

changing it for my former bike b4..

n after changing..need not tighten chain even since...

n even though do not lube it ....Great chain....

 

So i will definitely go for X-ring chain again...

Waiting for BOnus.=)......

i thinnk e reason for usin AFAM is that they are lighter compare to OEM . But how a chain last is how u use them , Drag them on first gears , no maintance will reduce the life of e chain too ...

Am think of changin to AFam and DID-Xring soon but damn broke

ya..me 2

just a question..

since AFAM is lighter..

will it wear out faster than OEM spocket???...

[duckit]

Dont think so ba , Cause most of e rider that rides class 2 sport bikes i known off , most use Afam cause of its light weight , They wanna reduce e unnessary weight on e bike .Dont think they wear off off i guess , but if maintance is there , anything can last ..

[cArRotZ]

as a user of both rk and did x rings and honda sprokets and italian sprokets, my advise..

 

DID last longer than RK. a lot longer.

 

sproket wise, i dun really feel any major difference after switching from honda to italian.

 

price wise, non-honda sprokets front and back + DID x ring can fetch u $180. do not get chopped. and be there when they change the sprokets and chain.

 

coz i tio chopped by a famous motortiam in ubi before. paid $130 for honda and did xring. he asked me to take a drink. after 6 mths found out is RK oring and some sunshine brand sprokets. got sun logo. lol. yeah.

 

well well, be there when they change. my advice.

[hit.man]

Hey X-ring better or O-ring better?

Or is there any major diff?

i make it a point to stay ard whenever they are doing anything to my bike.............this is a gd advice which everyone must heed...

 

and there are some shops that use decoy ....they (one of the staff) will pretend to talk to you and be very frenly .....but then they use other parts for your bike instead of the one that you want .....................
