sprocket size
#6
I'm running the 16\43 combo. It allows the use of the stock 102 link chain, which shortens the wheel base around 5mm and the speedo error is right at 10% on my bike so I can do the corrections in my head.
#8
My friend put the 520 conversion from Vortex on his 929 and killed it as fast as he killed a pilot power. I know his riding habits aren't the best (tries to do power wheelies on every straight) and his chain maintenance skills were substandard too. The rear sprocket was missing teeth because he overtightened the chain. I know I won't be getting Vortex anything though. This stuff should hold up a little better.
Does anybody have any suggestions for a long lasting chain and sprocket? I'm on my last tick mark so I'm gonna need it soon. I was thinking about going +2 so second can handle tight mountain roads and third has a little more oomph in high speed turns.

Well you can't really blame the sprocket if the guy ran it too tight ( the #1 killer of Al sprockets) and left the chain dirty. You could always try one of the Tri-metal sprockets like these http://sidewindersprockets.com/tri-metal_sprockets.html
as for a chain, just get the one with the highest load rating you can find.
