Front Sprocket $20 - $35 (dependant on quality)
Rear Sprocket $60 - $85 (dependant on quality)
Chain $240 - $280 ish (must get good quality top spec o-ring chain, RK, EK, etc)

so yeah about $370 roughly..based on my experiences.

dont get Mr Srox or Super Sprox sprockets, whatevr the fuk they are called, they dont fit right and are shit quality..Go steel if your not too worried about an extra beez dick of horsepower, they last heaps longer.

I've had really bad luck with DID chains. It seems like they stretch forever, of course it could be my shit riding ability but EK has given me no problem.

Hey Greg - Highly recommend the Stealth composite steel/ally rear sprockets.. Look great and last very well on big bangers ;)

can recommend sprocket center in the US, for my ZX6 was about $250 delivered for the set last time I did it, that's what you'll pay for a nice X ring chain over here.
