Thunderace Chain and Sprocket

[Twisted2004]

Quoted £138.00 from Yamaha main dealers.

obviously i can get it cheaper elsewhere....

....cheapest is about £95.00 delivered DID X RING.

Does anybody know what a 530 conversion is??

The following kit on ebay is a 530 kit...

530 Lighter, Stronger and Cheaper.

Thunderaces are 532 standard, but R1's use 530.

The kit makes the thunderace from the 532 - 530.

Correct??

Here you go, https://stores.ebay.co.uk/Motorrad-Elektrik-und-Antrieb


Send him a email asking if he,s got a kit for the thunderace, only problem is you have to send him euros by post but l,ve had loads of kits off him in the past and have never had any problems.

there's more options available if you convert thet sprockets to 530, from 532, and since there are more 530 chains avalable, they tend to be a bit cheaper, not to mention stronger too.

I've just fitted a Stealth Tri-Metal sprocket and new chain to my 'ace. it's an Alloy carrier with a steel ring for the teeth, almost as light as an alloy sprocket, lifetime of a steel one.

£105 fitted or £125 for heavy duty chain/sprockets from https://www.bfmmotorcycles.co.uk/ in Bradford.

Best off just ringing round local independents like them, or looking in back of bike mags. They also do mail order if you want to put chain/sprockets on yourself.

(Prices for a Thunderace 530 chain conversion)

Also check out https://www.exup1000.co.uk/ and https://www.bikersoracle.com/thunder/forum/ maybe more suggestions specific to bike on there.

Good luck!

Cheers

I've had stuff from https://www.bfmmotorcycles.co.uk/ on a couple of occasions, They're a great bunch. They're very friendly, helpful, competitively priced and very quick with their deliveries.
Their showroom is pretty good too, Bikes and clothing downstairs, then a room packed with goodies upstairs. I could spend a fortune in their if I had any money!!!!! I met Dave Jeffries (rip) in there when his family owned the place. He was a top chap, he would happily stand there and chat to you all day.

£111 for steel sprockets and Tsubaki O-ring chain, or £119 with Tsubaki X-ring gold chain. Tsubaki are the best chain I know of. I tend to see buying cheap chains as false economy.

make sure to get the 530 conversion and note the part numbers as 532 is hens teeth and damned expensive these days.
