Oh, right. Sorry. How do you like your YFZ for the trails? Do you miss reverse?</end quote></div>

I like it, it has a great power band that comes on strong, but it will where you out because you can ride it so much harder. I am still trying to get the shocks dialed in but it is a great fun fast reliable quad so far.

Seems like a decent deal. Good feedback.

I have not, I usually stick to the EBC brand ( I think that is what i bought) and have not had any issues. What does Rocky want for a set of pads?

$17 for the cheapest set @ Rocky, 20 for the cheapest @ DK. Maybe I'll give the ebay ones a shot. Or should I order some new sprockets from DK and just throw pads in too? (I just got my tax refund!) What is it that everyone likes? 13/39?

Fo giggles, call the local Suzuki dealer and see what pads cost from them? Somtimes they are cheaper or worth an extra dollar to be able to pick them up right away. Other wise oder some with the purchase of new sprockets. I will let you know what I have. I like what I have but was going to experiment with one more smaller in rear or one more bigger in front, I just can't remember what i have right now.

Well, I'm not in a rush since I'm down at school until the end of next week. I'll probably do some ordering tomorrow after my last test. Right now I've got three hours of tests and another hour tomorrow. Its already been a long week. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]

In that case you are better off finding the cheapest online and waiting for the parts. Good luck on the tests.

Do you guys think 13/39 would be an ok sprocket setup for me with the 22" tires, or should I go 13/40 or something completely different?

Which brand of sprockets do you guys like, or is there really a huge difference? I'm looking at the Sunstar 39 and the JT 39. JT is ten dollars cheaper @ $24.99. Both are high carbon steel, they just have different shaped "speed holes".

Does the 13 tooth front work with the Bike Bandit case saver?

Also, on chains, how do you know if you need a new one? And if I were to get a new one, who do you guys like? And, O-ring or non-O-ring? I think I've heard on here non-O-ring.

I will go out and see what sprockets I have now. I went with the cheapest steel sprockets and non O-ring chain I could get and it has worked out great so far. I lubricate before and after riding though too.
