Gen2/3 are 17/45 525 OEM.

16T on the front makes an appreciable difference, need to lengthen the swingarm (move the axle back) to get back to ~608mm wheelbase when it's done.

Stick with 525 if using it on the road.

Manufacturers and specific options have been discussed a few times. B&C Express, BikeHPS, Performance Parts Ltd etc all can supply various.
A cheap chain is probably a weak chain.
You can have steel or alloy for the sprockets the former is tougher, latter lighter, your choice.

I also have a 47t sprocket for sale (520 chain) still in packaging

I change the gearing in my clocks to get more out my days

Not really sure what you mean here.

Gearing changes don?t affect the clocks on the RR, as speed comes from the ABS sensor.

[emoji23] early morning joke buddy ... clocks have gears ( so long as not digital) so lowering the gears results in a longer day ... get more out of ur day .
And believe I need shorter days right now !
