I tried to use the search function on the forum and could not come out with anything solid. So I have to post the question…. The bike I just bought only has 5000miles it is in excellent condition except the chain. The chain is rusted on the links and I would like to replace it, as well as the sprockets.
My question is:
On sprockets and gearing
I noticed the bike has an 18 front sprocket and a 42 rear sprocket, is this stock?.. if so is there a gearing combination which has been proven to be optimal in performance for the Speed Triples? I know some manufactures gear down the bikes for a variety of reasons, wondering if this is the case with the Triumph.
Also what do you guys recommend as far as sprocket manufactures, should I stick with steel?
Chain question:
As stated earlier the chain has some nasty rust… so I would like to get a new DID ZVM chain… has anyone use this chain before?....any good places to get these parts for a good price?
Thanks guys
