Hey guys and girls!! I have THREE sets of chains and sprokets to suit FZR250 3LN posibly 2KR (3 x front standard teeth, 3 x rear sproket standard teeth, and 3x o-ring chain) All the bits are NEW and after market... Genuane cost BIG money ($77 for the front sproket!!) I belive going price in shops is above $200 for a set!! I'm selling them at a LOW LOW price of.... $185 a set. and if you let me put it on I'll do the deal for $230!!! PM me or e-mail me!!!
Hey TBone, I just 'adjusted' my chain and checked the sprockets on the weekend and found that they are 'almost' pointed teeth with about 1.5mm of flat left on the end. I havnt really ever thought too much about it, but is this still within safe tolerances, and if NOT, how much to post one of those chains up for a 2KR to Brissy? Cheers Nate
can you post a pic of where the axle and the chain ajust marks are?? I'm having a wee bit of difficultes picturing 1.5mm left of ajustment... (basicaly I cant belive it) Best way to check if your chain is gone is to try and pull it off the rear sprocket... as in the pic below... it it comes off it's a goner...
I think GSS means that the ends of the sprockets teeth (looking from behind the bike) there is about 1.5mm of flat 'head' on each tooth. I'll throw in my $0.02 and say that that won't be very indicative of the condition of the chain and sprockets. Far better to check it properly; firstly for any dead links, secondly for any tight spots, a thirdly (although most importantly) to see how much slack around the sprocket the chain has (as pictured in TBone's post). I saw the bike in the picture (and adjusted the chain) and I still can't belive how knackered that chain was! Thankfully he decided to pay for a new chain & sprockets instead of the ambulance bills when it failed!
Thats pretty good. Last time i needed this done i got the parts for $170 (yamwreck) then took it to a mechanic who charged $110 for labour. Total: $280. I'll look you up next time tbone.
I'll post the pics as this is a pretty easily overlooked area I'd say... And Koma is correctamundo re teeth... Cheers Nate
I forgot... I think to express post them it will be a 3Kg bag wich I think is $16... I will have to double check the weight etc... and also find out other means of sending them around (like couriers)
