Default aluminum sprockets

Hey im planning on going -1/+1 as soon as i get my swingarm back. I've heard aluminum sprockets get chewed up pretty quick when your change you gearing. Im just lookin for some input from those of you who have changed your sprockets. Which ones last vs. thjose that dont. Thanx. Ive heard alot of good things about supersprox, and have a feeling thats what im gonna go with, the only thing holding me back is the gold they have on them.

Rough estimate... Id say aluminum will give you about 2500-3000 miles depending on riding habits.

I just received the driven sprockets... like 'em so far!

Can't say on the 54. I had driven sprockets on the F4i and they lasted longer than that. They were -1/+1. I am going to go with that setup on one of my 54's and see how it goes too. I will probably go with driven sprockets. Are you going to go 520? I am leaning toward 530 again.

Just FYI, but if your planning on buying a new 530 chain also Amazon (oddly enough) has a good price on the RK GB530 GXW 120link.

Imported a Euro version of the Supersprox. Anodized red. Went 15/44 (-1/+1) Black EK chain. Pro Bolt nuts. Stuck with 530. Put about 2,000 miles on the sprocket. No probs so far. Absolutely love the gear change!
