Default Anyone use a Sidewinder Sprocket

I'm think about going with a 39 tooth Sidewinder. I would like a little more top speed but don't want to lose acceleration. I have a pipe and jet kit coming, so I'm thinking that I would make up the acceleration difference with that and have more top speed. Any thoughs?

To make a long story short, I do not recommend them [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/img] . But, if you feel like getting shafted by all means call them and order your sproket. Just make sure you ask them specifically if the sprocket will fit over the sprocket hub. Also, dont let them sell you any of thier super duper synthetic idiot oil for chains. Thats my advice. Its a free country.

I just ordered my new 15 tooth front / 43 tooth rear and new chain. I spoke to an Alex on the phone and he was very helpful. I won't get the new chain and sprockets for a week or so yet, but I was very happy with the service on the phone.

They have a gear ratio chart on thier web site to figure out your gearing.

That my 2 cents worth !!!

I've got 5 quads, 2 dirt bikes and only use Sidewinder sprockets. You get what you pay for! From what I've seen of my friends bikes/quads chains/sprockets I would never use anything else.

I've had good results from their products and service.
I never gave into the hard sale on the chain lube either [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/img]

I'd really like to know if their products hold up. I"m not impressed with the wear I'm getting from aluminum.
