Looks like a good price and they are supposedly made in the USA. May buy a 3/8 and 5/8 just for fitment check with the new swing arm.

i heated the inner frame tube area and squeezed it flat on the inside to improve clearance. i also milled the hub to get it lined up.

With a 530 chain there is plenty of clearance and no chain fouling issues with either frame or tyre.
I also run the same setup on my Z1R but with a 630 chain and although everything is very close nothing actually touches.
Also with the 5/8 offset and over i would strongly recommend running an outrigger bearing.

Was that from D&G Mark? My offset sprocket was $165 for an 18 tooth 530. I wonder if it being a 1.24" offset had anything to do with the higher cost? Hmmmm.mark1122 wrote: looks like a newcomer. never seen them before. great price.

That is why I want to run the 3/8" sprocket up front to keep from having to run an outer support bearing for the output shaft. I know a guy on the ZRX forum (Chris) has a complete ZRX1100 (That ran the 170 tire) rear suspension on the MKII chassis and he used the 3/8" front with the .200" milled rear hub to have everything in alignment. I also know he milled equal .040" off each side of the swing arm pivot tube to get it to fit instead of milling a full .080" off one side.
