What a difference!!!

I just changed out my rear sprocket to a new sunstar aluminum 39t sprocket, a steel 15t in front, and a DID roller chain and it feels like a new bike.  I cleaned all the gunk in the front sprocket and it blew me away.  The whole process was maybe 30 minutes.  Piece of cake with a haynes manual as well as general know how of doing these things.  I also changed the grips with the ol hairspray trick and they aren't all split and cracked now.  I just have to do the exhaust and a rejet and I'm about done with the bike.

Keep in mind that you're gonna have to clean and lube that roller chain MUCH more often than an o-ring, if you want it to last! (Speaking of which, I gotta do my chain tomorrow)

Yeah, I know, but its way easier to take it off and put it back on than wanting to spend a whole load of money on an o-ring chain right now.  The wife had a surgery so I am trying not to spend as much on the toys right now.
