Aftermarket upgrades that are actual upgrades.

Checking out Öhlins and RaceTech, and I’m surprised that some of what they sell are more affordable than what I was expecting. The Öhlins KA 143 Street S36 twin shocks for example, are only $839, the RaceTech G3S custom shocks are only $800 for the non-piggyback version. 

Ooohhh... necroposting.

Wondering if anyone has any experience with JT Sprockets. They are less expensive than OEM from what I've gathered, and seem to offer a ton of configurations for drivetrain sprockets. 

I've got JT steel sprockets on my Z1  530 conversion and have had no issues.

I've been running JT sprockets on most of my bikes for years .
Their catalogue with detailed pics and measurments is very good for cross referencing and finding alternative sprockets from other machines for 530 conversions etc if they exist .
They are pretty much the only aftermarket sprocket brand i use ( except for Talon or Kosman etc for front offsets ) and never had any problems with the fit or quality.
I usually only use DID chain though.
JT have fairly recently started selling their own branded chains but i gather they are sourced from elsewhere ( Thailand ) and have read a lot of bad reviews regarding quality so i'm steering clear of them for now..

We've been running JT sprockets on our '93 CB750 Nighthawks & a few of our Z1's for a long time.  They fit & wear fine.
