Hi v1jay
Yes the AFAM front is the most likely candidate as the OEM part has a rubber damper built in to reduce harmonic vibration - or somesuch. I've read many posts on the subject of noise from pattern parts.
BTW
I went out today to try to buy a Yam front sprok so I could then upgrade chain and rear via the net.
Oh dear.
Wanna know the UK price for the Yam part?:Flip:
£79!!!!!!!!:Flash:
Nett result is I went for the complete OEM kit for £160 which sadly only has the bog standard O ring chain. Still, it should be good for another 30 thou looked after properly.
Yup - I got a quote for 76 quid + VAT for an original OEM front sprocket and nearly fainted so decided to go for an Heavy Duty X-ring AFAM chain and sprocks [full set].
The o-ring chains are fine IMO, i did 31k [miles] on mine:BLAA: and it was the stock DID chain too.. i paid a few quid less then yourself for the AFAM set, and i'm happy with it the slight whine from the front means i'm not going deaf lol
Thank again Fox - cheers, vj
