G'day all. It's about time I changed the chain and sprockets on my 98 Bandit. At the moment it's pretty much standard with around 120hp. I'm wondering what everyones thoughts are on changing from the standard 15t/45t sprockets. At the moment i'm leaning towards going down a tooth on the front.

Also what chains do you Bandit owners use?

Cheers

Dick

Hmm, you reckon? 100 maybe...

I think the stock gearing is perfect and any changes will leave it lacking somewhere.
I am running an RK XW-ring chain. It hasn't flown off and killed me so I am happy with it so far.

Not that it really matters, (especially in relation to the topic), but Dynoed on three seperate occasions on the same Dyno at 121, 121, 124hp. So fairly confident of that. Unless of course the dyno was out of cal. Thanks for the advice.
