Front sprocket swap ????

[banditman]

I need an offset front sprocket for my 86 1100 slabby project. Am I right in thinking that some people use the zx6r front as it's got a 5mm offset??? 

Other than that what have you used and what was the offset? 

Do deben do on the shelf offset sprockets? 

Cheers. Bm

Yes ZX6R fit the GSX-R spline. They do have a slight offset but I think they are narrower as well. Check out http://www.jtsprockets.com/ for mor info

thanks for that, 

saying that if the zx9r fits too i have seen that they do have a 10 offset ;-)

520 conversion(lighter and smaller,more clearance)fronts for gsxr600/750/1000/etc. Nearly all  Suzuki's use  front sprockets with these dimensions  


Fzr1000 530/50 conversion fronts also fit and have a slight offset

Only the 525 02/03 zx9r


520 Conversion ZX10R


And zx6r 520 conversion


And zx6r 525

Nice info Del.

Im not so keen on 520 chains and sprockets they dont last too long.

I snapped a good quality 530 chain in Isle man that was only year old. I remember thinking why chain developed high spot so soon must change it when get home. Then bang lesson learnt there I reckon.

I drilled and lockwired casing together to get working clutch again.

Depending on how many threads on shaft you could machine new spacer leave lock washer off green thread lock in place , but make sure its safe and enough engagement.

All your into maching collar and welding gear on like dragbikes but they use out rigger bearings.
