pearson23 Posted March 26, 2015 Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 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! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huski Posted March 26, 2015 Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 Looks wrong , is there a history of people injured by the normal ones? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve_earle Posted March 26, 2015 Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shercoben12 Posted March 27, 2015 Report Share Posted March 27, 2015 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazybond700 Posted March 27, 2015 Report Share Posted March 27, 2015 (edited) 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, 2015 by crazybond700 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guys Posted March 27, 2015 Report Share Posted March 27, 2015 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the addict Posted March 27, 2015 Report Share Posted March 27, 2015 Personally I think these look bloody hideous, a marketing ploy more than anything, 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddie_lejeune Posted March 27, 2015 Report Share Posted March 27, 2015 yes these should be cheaper to machine not more expensive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve_earle Posted March 27, 2015 Report Share Posted March 27, 2015 Paint the centre bits black and it will look like a normal sprocket! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taffe Posted March 28, 2015 Report Share Posted March 28, 2015 Yep as Steve_ said, that's what I would do too. Cheers Taff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baldilocks Posted March 28, 2015 Report Share Posted March 28, 2015 Two ways of doing this either the jitsie sprocket or the stick on type. I dont get how a sticker can be nearly £20 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guys Posted March 28, 2015 Report Share Posted March 28, 2015 (edited) 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, 2015 by guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pearson23 Posted March 28, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2015 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! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
