I would stay away from Spocket Specialists. I had one of thier alloys on the rear and it didnt last 6mo. Next time when I do the whole set again I will try sidewinders.

Try to stay away from a plain alum rear sprocket if you want life from it, sprocket specialists and a number of other companies make a treated alloy sprocket, while you are at it you might want to change gearing to best match your needs.

I run the Sidewinder titanium sprockets with D.I.D's 520ATV chain.
Probably the most important is the good chain. If your chain stretches it doesn't matter you will ruin any sprocket. I'm only telling you from experince.

I am talking about a set up for the Raptor, so I am thinking you are asking for your Rappy not Banshee.

Yes the Sidewinder sprocket set up but you won't need the D.I.DATV chain. A regular 520 chain will work fine.
