Here ya go mate. I have this fitted. JT stuff is good and well priced.


Buy a scottoiler too, if you can.


And... Welcome to the forum  :D

Not quite sure what to do with my early mid-life crisis. Ideas on a post card to P.O.BOX 150...

NOTE: You need to make sure you have the new 12mm front sprocket nut on your bike as well.


Rather than going into it, use the search box above and type in "front sprocket nut" and a wealth of info will come up.


New nut code is 90891-10124

Buy a scottoiler too, if you can.


*opens can of worms*

I recently changed over to a PDOiler and have to say have been so impressed would now choose one over a Scotty any day.

This is the JT kit that I have ordered for £85, it comes with JT chain says 'o' ring but the X1r chain is heavy duty 'x' ring, specs are very good and they seem to be taking on DID, so I thought I would give it a go  ;)

the kit Adeejay listed is JT sprockets with Triple SSS Chain, how that compares, don't know
 
Oh and I got the 12mm sprocket nut with tab washer from Wemoto
 
Just waiting for mine to arrive, be nice to get rid of the vibration and noise, my current one is knaked !!!  :o

Yeah that's weird how its cheaper than adeejaysdelight and mentions O ring when there is no mention of O ring chain on the website.

Bought a standard JT sprocket kit and a DID  VX chain from Wemoto , gonna find a local mechanic to replace the chain as I don't have a chain splitter / riveter , gonna fit the sprockets myself over winter  .
