Kz700 revamp was created by KZScott
Ok, pulling out my kz this season, I realized it needs some attention. The chain and sprockets are worn and the back clamp for my kerker exhaust broke. Was thinking about a 530 conversion kit for the drivetrain. Question is, how big of a front sprocket can I go with? I know a 15-38 will be comparable to the 13-33 I have now. I'd like to go a little bigger, but I don't want to lose much on the top end either. As for exhaust, I'm looking at a Mac 4 into 1. I have black exhaust now, but I may do chrome cause I'm thinking of going back to the original paint scheme next year. Thoughts?

Ok, about to order a 530 kit. Any idea which spacers I need? I want to try a 16-40 on a stock kz700
