Help Verifying Sprocket Fit

[gzlocal]

Ok, so here's the deal. The chain on the GSXR 600 IS a 525, but they have a 520 conversion for the bike. This bike did not have that conversion. The only difference in the sprockets for chain size is they are usually a bit thicker, which presents a problem since the sprocket must sit flush in the correct position. Some sprockets are thinner than OEM, and it is easy to add a washer to the back to correct this problem. However, with this sprocket, it measures approximately 3mm thicker than my factory 15 tooth. Not too big of a deal if you have a milling machine to machine some metal off of the center raised portion, but for me it seems like too much trouble just to save $20. I believe I'll just go with the JT434.16, since I can get it for around $21.

For future information, powersports superstore charges a lot more for shipping now on these sprockets. The cheapest I found was on Amazon for $12.97 and shipping was $8.19. Comes out to around $21.

For all other purposes and future information, the measurements are identical to the factory sprocket. So for those who are more skilled metal workers than I :retard: , and also more equipped, this sprocket can work. Otherwise, it is much easier to go for the official replacement.

Thanks for the suggestions fellas!
