Decent chain & sprocket setup?

Are any of you guys familiar with this brand? If so, any thoughts or feedback about it. Thanks!

Honda CBR 954 520 Conversion Chain & Sprocket Kit | eBay

I'm a little scared off by the lack of big name-brand, but like the thoroughness of the explanations, etc. The overall price looks pretty appealing too.

I wouldnt do it; most 520s are rated at 750cc, especially being off brand.

For that price,I'd go with RK and Vortex sprockets.520 conversions are ok but chain wears a little faster.

Thanks for the feedback guys. The good news is that it wasn't an imminent "buy it now" situation for me or anything like that.

Why 17-40? 954 won't hit 200 MPH
