Power Commander or the 520 sprocket?
I have a question for you guys which would you do first with an 05 cbr100rr. I have a 2 bros exhaust and a 2bro juice box just wanting to do something else and im not sure if going with the 520 1- front +2 in rear is worth it as the 1000rr has all the power?

OK.....
the converstion will give the the most noticable change....HOWEVER.....-1/+2 is going to SEVERLY alter how you bike rides to the point of no fun....stock is 2.625 to 1.....I went +4 in the back bumping it to 2.875 to 1...and the 520.....it lifts if you breathe wrong...BUT there is nothing that can out accel me..I mean nothing. i am however eating 520 sprockets its very hard on them ...if you go -1/+2 you are at 3 to1 thats nearing stunt bikes....with a liter engine at that ratio if you nail it you could feasibly rip teeth....and it would easily flip the bike.

Do both, unless you need a new chain. If you dont, order up a -1 front sprocket (its all you need for gearing) and will only set ya back $25. That will leave you the cash to get the pc3 as well.

I think it depends on condition. I know if your stuff is fairly worn the change will prematurly wear the new parts. But for example on my bike, when i got it with 3500 miles everything was well cared for. I dropped a tooth in front and still got another 10k out of it. So i guess i dont completely agree with you Play, but i do know what you mean.
