kenr74 Posted November 9, 2003 Report Share Posted November 9, 2003 The front sprockets are only about $10 at the stealerships. If you can afford gas a sprocket shouldn't be that bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kenr74 Posted November 10, 2003 Report Share Posted November 10, 2003 Hey check on ebay if you are looking for a whole chain/sprocket set. There is somebody on there that sells the whole package for around $65. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogboystoy Posted November 11, 2003 Report Share Posted November 11, 2003 Why are your sprokets and chains going bad all of the sudden? Do you over tighten the chain? Because that would explain why you are stretching the chain out and why the sproket is shreaded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShifT714 Posted November 11, 2003 Author Report Share Posted November 11, 2003 when i first got both the quads i never oil the chain so thats y they stretched n they r both the same age u could say, both 98 built within 2 months of each other(sorta sounds like im talkin about kids) n i guess the sprockets just have there normal wear, usually when i go ridin i take both quads cuz a friend is usally on the blaster(he use to have a blaster) n im always ridin the shee, i guess its just normal wear n tear on the sprockets, thanks but does ne one know ne good gear ratios that would suit my ridin? thanks l8r Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Banshee109 Posted November 16, 2003 Report Share Posted November 16, 2003 15/43 i found it to be the best it has top speed and some good ratios for the trails. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
