Member Contributer jeremy77 Posted May 6, 2012 Member Contributer Share Posted May 6, 2012 Still assembling parts to get ready to put her back together after a fairly complete disassembly. Time to order chain and sprockets. I found this set for what seems to be a good price. http://www.jcmotors.com/p-17022-rk-racing-oe-chain-and-sprocket-kits-for-honda-vfr750f-90-97.aspx Opinions? Brand, price, seller, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VFR72525 Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 That's exactly the kit I put on my VFR last year. Pretty sure I used that seller too. Everything was fine except that I messed up my first try riveting the master link and cracked the rivets. Had to order a replacement master link off E-bay. The chain and sprockets seem to be really good quality and I haven't had any issues with anything in about 6K miles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timmythecop Posted May 8, 2012 Share Posted May 8, 2012 Did somebody say "new chain" ????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer jeremy77 Posted May 8, 2012 Author Member Contributer Share Posted May 8, 2012 Is that an oiler, Timmy? Does anyone have a recommendation for a tool for the rivet link that doesn't cost a bazillion bucks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timmythecop Posted May 8, 2012 Share Posted May 8, 2012 it is a hacked up tripod used as a Contour Roam mount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer ggathagan Posted May 8, 2012 Member Contributer Share Posted May 8, 2012 I can't speak to JC Motors as a hardware seller, but they're the same company the runs motorcycleshippers.com. I used them in 2005 to ship my 5th gen from California to in Hawaii. Excellent experience. Very friendly and helpful staff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer jeremy77 Posted May 8, 2012 Author Member Contributer Share Posted May 8, 2012 I went ahead and purchased that chain... No to figure out how to install Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 I used a nail punch and a hammer to start the rivet then used a C-Clamp and BB to flare it a little more. Probably not the best way to go about it but, worked for me. I still check the master link before I ride and mid way through if it's a long ride.
