Re: Chain and sprocket
16/41 is stock .... I like 16/43 and use Sunstar brand sprockets
FWIW , DID makes an X-Ring chain thats the exact chain that comes on the SH's from the factory . That is a really nice chain IMO .

Re: Chain and sprocket
since we're on the topic, does anyone know if specific year cbr900rr sprockets are the same as the superhawk's? I'm looking into good prices for a 520 conversion but don't always find the superhawk listed, but most other honda models.
or any other models that might be interchangeable.

Re: Chain and sprocket
I went with the Vortex 520 conversion kit, one-tooth-down on the front sprocket, two-teeth-up on the rear sprocket. I've used three brands of 520-conversion chain that I consider to be top-flight and almost interchangable--for most practical applications, at least: Regina gold x-ring (arguably the best of the three), DID gold x-ring (arguably very close in quality to the Regina), and IK gold x-ring (a very close third place).
