SUPER SPROX questions.
As some of you may or may not know I am planning on tearing down the VTR as soon as the cold hits. Full 9. Going to be asking about the crank as another user warned me the HP im looking for is not friendly to them.
Back to the point. Another user mentioned them in passing. I want the lightest part with the highest wear possible. Who here has run em and what was the price/ what tooth count are you using. I have not counted the teeth on my aluminum unit but I am pretty sure I will be happy. Also affecting this is if budget allows I want to get some mag or carbon fiber rims. At least a drive wheel. I havent the faintest *** of a clue what I want to use. Map n compass please.

I use Stealth sprockets on my DRZ400, DRZ485SM, RM250, VTR1000F and have installed them on several dozens of bikes from KTM990 SM, to Triumph Speed triples.
They last as long as any quality steel sprocket. Maintain the chain, clean abrasives off, lube and adjust chain as needed.
16-41 is stock gearing
I run 15-43 as for my riding it's more grins, I dont need a 150+ mph top end.....147 indicated and GPS confirmed is enough
MSRP is $89.95 they can be had for $79.99 commonly online

Thanks agin.
You were a big help in my other thread. Still investigating that btw.
I think ill order me one in the future there is a dealer just outside tokyo. ( some know mine is alu.) My weekly cleaning of the chain shows little wear still so im sure it wont puke before I get parts.
Also going to do a tooth count possibly tonight as the tanks gotta come out. I have not had the gull to go over 111 yet.
