hi, guys anyone know of where you can get a 520 front sprocket for a h2 standard or one less tooth
cheers
oh and happy new year everyone

can in my country 520 for 520 O ring

who by

will ask to my mechanic man if you want, perhaps AFAM.

B&C express sprockets will make any sprocket any size machined from alloy

sprockets unlimited in the uk

its a great way for some cheap power BUT they wont last long even with regular maintenance...I fitted bsa bantam chain/sprockets to a velocette i raced and got 2hp...All pukka race bikes have the absolute minimum pitch chain sprockets....

eeeeh, cheers Gray,.

Denco called it a 'no loss' set,

of what i'm wondering?,.until i read this and memorised the calculation,...

yep 520 is a bit punni for this beast a tuned harry barlow h2 motor in a moded lc frame spoked wheels ect it is a mate of mine who is building it cant wait for a thrash

Keith
dont think i'd put a smaller front on with only a 520,..on a tuned motor,

i have a 49t rear on mine instead of stock 47, hence the £100 xring as non standard links,

not at all, I'm 520 o ring on my H2A no troubles and done for exemple 1000 kilometers a day at 7000 7500 on the german highways: perfect.
And anyway 530 o ring doesn't work: touch the clutch actuator

Mine doesn't JP, even with a 16 tooth front.

It's close but a miss is as good as a mile. :smt023

I'm also 16 front, have even try 15 with not o ring chain, still touched and same on my H2B, but my 69 H1 is 530 O ring: no trouble :!:

it's an O ring chain.... I forgot that bit.

Is it putting out more than a GP bike Keith?

If you google "the truth about chains" there is a lot of rubbish talked about chains, mainly by suppliers. Look at the tensile strengths and why GP bikes use 520 chains.

Strength is not an issue, but as Ade says, it will just wear a bit quicker, so if you can live with that its not a problem. Also, if you are looking for every small gain, a non o-ring chain will save a bit of friction/transmission loss. But again, more maintenance and wear (dirt gets inside the rollers and forms a nice grinding paste).

all i need to say is
520 chain is good enough for moto gp bikes ,and some of my dragbikes have had it on

its all down to the qaulity of the chain
