After Market Rear Sprockets

Hi guys
Can anyone give me any feed back on Aliminium rear sprockets such as the one in the link.

http://www.mototwin.com/store/produc...products_id=40

Are they durable enough for every day use or are they just for track days?

What do they wear like in comparisom to Triumph OEM ( durability, Performance and longevity ) rear sprockets?

I'd be grateful for your help.

Jon UK

I am running an aluminum rear 45T that I bought from NB. So far so good. I have
about 1200 miles on it with no issues.
Just checked it for wear last week and there was none.

Sprockets

I am curious myself! The stocker is doing ok, but not real high quality material. I also was curious on the colored aluminun>? Better looks & lighter. Serious question on durability? Keep us up on how the aluminum one is holding out! I would like to put a black one on if all is well. Help hide the dirt if nothing else? Im thinkin next rear tire might be time? Will see?

aluminum sprockets

I just turned over 30k miles on my original 42 tooth rear sprocket. I'd say that is VERY durable! I've just ordered a stock steel replacement for that reason. I'd love to know what kind of mileage the aluminum jobs are good for though.
