    Places to buy chain & sprocket kits

    Im after a chain and sprocket kit for my 01 zx6r. Cant get any off trademe. What online bike stores do we have in NZ that i can order off? Or where else could i source them from at a reasonable price.

    I really want to have a look around at kits and find a heavy duty kit or something of good quality but in my price range. Im not after 'just a cheap kit' if you get what i mean.

    Any recommendations?

    Cheers guys

    Hmm about $600NZD for a kit from those guys. Looks like a good bit of kit though.

    Not bad ae. Found them in aussie so might get an alright shipping cost. Im trying to keep cost down to around 4-500 for full kit so Ill see what happens.

    Well right now with the supersprox stealth front and rear sprocket its $165 aussie dollars before shipping. Next issue is finding a GOOD chain to go with it all.

    Not bad,shipping should be bugger all,cheapest option would be the slow boat but na bugger that.Should be plenty of local places to find a decent chain,take my word for it those sprockets are bloody good,never understood why i havent seen more around on bikes here.

    A phone call to your local Kawasaki shop will sort that mate.

    Found out its 525 standard. How would i go if i were to get the stealth supersprox sprockets. And then get a good named 530 chain? Would i be looking at a very reliable combo? And what sort of ring chain should i go for. An X or and O ring.

    Sorry for the questions this is my first time looking and buying my own chain and sprockets. And want to get some good stuff on the bike.
