12 Sep 2007 08:36
What do you think of this design i came up with? I will be machining it from 7075 aluminum and will be used on my KZ550.

I've seen aluminum sprockets with much bigger holes than that on much more powerful bikes than our KZ's, and they seem to safely last a good amount of time.

That would look sweeeeeeeeeet on my 650! :woohoo:
i like it but will the aluminum be strong enough to withstand a few years of abuse?

I finally got to machining the sprocket i designed with Solidworks.
I am very happy with how it turned out:)
I forgot to take the camera to work to take some pics of the sprocket in process but i did take one when i got home!

Most of the Kzs use the same bolt pattern and Chain size 38 - 45 teeth The 750-4s and police use 630 but most convert over ,, Coatings would be nice in Colors like red or KZ Green .. Polish yourself would be the cheapest to us the buyer though .. You should really sit down and figure up a Price there is interest Also a paypal account to make it easy pay //
