Hardened sprokets for F650GS?

Does anyone have any recomendations on the best sprokets for the F650GS? The OE sprokets seem to wear quickly even when kept adjusted and lubed.

Enjoy the ride,

FF

sidewinder titanium II. guaranteed for life. Expensive, but if you are doing something like a RTW, then worth it.

if you want a cheaper solution, just make sure you get a steelnrear sprocket and not an aluminium alloy one.

I've used those for my last trip and now have about 20000km on them with no adjustments (I think, had a flat so maybe I had one.) but they're out of business and are only clearing stock AFAIK. So get in quick but don't expect them to be around once stock is gone. Email them first before ordering to see if their site is up to date.
