I'm sure this has been discussed ad nauseam but I am gathering parts for the 12k winter service and next on the list is the chain and sprockets.
STG has the Driven sprockets and the EK MVXZ chain for 189 and that seems about fair to me but I can't really find much info on the longevity of the Driven sprockets.
I have read a lot about the Stealth rear sprocket with the steel teeth but that is giving me fits to locate. My other thought is to get a Renthal sprocket set but again that is giving me fits to locate online. From what I gather any Parts Unlimited dealer can get me a set from the catalog but I was at my dealer and he couldn't find them in his manual. I have the part numbers now from Renthal so I can take them to him.
My question is, is there a huge difference between Driven and Renthal sprockets to justify spending more money by not buying as a kit? or will I be good with the Driven set?
I only ride street with maybe a novice track day this summer. I plan on doing either -1/+2 or stock/+2. Haven't decided but I am leaning towards -1/+2 because I'm a big guy at 260 and will never touch the 160ish top speed.
Thoughts?
