March 26, 201511 yr Went for the new style full Jitsie rear red sprocket with new red bolts. Now I've fitted it I'm not sure I like it............ Not to mention I've already scratched it when the bike slipped of its stand and the footpeg dragged down it, was not best pleased!
March 26, 201511 yr You'll get used to it!! Are them red bolts alloy or steel, I wouldn't like the thought of alloy bolts on a sprocket, Asking for trouble.
March 27, 201511 yr yeah if those bolts are alloy then change them straight away. the heads will either round of or they will snap leaving you in big trouble. go on to the PROBOLT website and order some titanium ones or stainless steel. the red bolts look wrong on that anyway. order some black ones they will look alot better with the red sprocket. and then fit some black s3 rim tapes and your bike will look mint
March 27, 201511 yr You need to make the rim black, this is ugly! Spend more money! lol I just waterjetted a plate behind the sprocket. It is the new rules, and I know people who miss a finger, more than one! Edited March 27, 201511 yr by crazybond700
March 27, 201511 yr It will probably look better with the wheel on the bike. But it's a lot of red indeed. I've got a black one on my 4RT and it looks alright. Be careful though, the aluminium that covers the holes is wafer thin.
March 27, 201511 yr Personally I think these look bloody hideous, a marketing ploy more than anything,
March 28, 201511 yr Two ways of doing this either the jitsie sprocket or the stick on type. I dont get how a sticker can be nearly £20
March 28, 201511 yr Two ways of doing this either the jitsie sprocket or the stick on type. I dont get how a sticker can be nearly £20 The difference between a "normal" and a FIM type sprocket from Jitsie is only €10 or £7,3 S3 also sells them: http://www.s3parts.com/product_trial.html Edited March 28, 201511 yr by guys
March 28, 201511 yr Author Ill be keeping the sprocket as is but will revert back to the original bolts. I think once its back in the bike it will be all good!
