Title: BANDIT 400 sprocket
Post by: Cozzy on October 05, 2006, 05:53:25 PM
will the bandit 400 fornt and rear sprockets fit the GS500, I am going to replace the chain as well, as in my country GS500 is a really un-common, even the dealer doesn't have the sprockets, but I can get the bandit 400 sprockets in any bike shops, so I am wondering if I can replace my worn spockets with the bandit 400 sprockets , or should I go after market :thumb:.

Cozzy we don't know where you're from,  but if your local shops don't carry the sprockets you're going to stuck waiting for them regardless.  I can't find another bike with the same factory part number.

I had a look at the JT sprockets.com, I fond there are some sprockets with the same bolt patten, but the chain size is different, most of them use 525 chain will that work?

Nope I think a 525 Chain Has a Different Pitch.The 530 has the Same Pitch but the Sprocket and Chain is Wider.A Rear Sprocket from a GSXR1100 Will work but The Width Would Have to be Milled Down.
Is there Anyway that you can Do Online Ordering? Credit Card? If your Dealer Won't Help go to Another Dealer or Order online.I know of a Place that you can Order and Usually get the Parts Cheaper than what the Dealer Offers them for. :thumb:

That's what I am thinking as well, living in a city like Hong Kong, we have only one suzuki dealer, but well, I can always order it online, is there any good online parts shop?
