Not a bad deal. If you ride aggressively, that sprocket will wear quicker. If not, aluminum will suit you fine.
SuperSprox and RK chain kit....worth it?
Thinking about buying this sprocket and Chain kit from supersprox. You can see the details in the picture. Thinking of going with the RK Gold 520GXW chain, the supersprox steel/aluminum rear 45t gold sprocket and the 16t grooved front sprocket. I'm wondering if this is worth the $225 price tag...any input?

Guess I should've updated everyone about this purchase. I did go ahead and buy this setup the next day. I chose to pick up at their location in Riverside, Ca because I need to change the chain ASAP. Picked up the 45t rear, 16t grooved front, and RK gold GXW 112link chain. (also received the free t-shirt 
). Went home and got to installing it. Rear came off very easy of course, took the old one off and slapped the new one on and torqued to spec. Went to take the front off and as many know from my other post ( http://zx6r.com/mechanical-technical/63469-stripped-front-sprocket-nut-help.html ) it didn't go so well lol. So I left the front sprocket on since it still looked to be in great condition and went ahead and popped off the old chain and started putting on the new one. Little did I know the 112 links wasn't enough...didn't matter how much I tried it was too short. Hit up SuperSprox in riverside and explained I ordered the wrong size and asked if he could help me out. He said sure no problem just pay the difference for the longer 116 link chain (even though I had already attempted to put this one on). I get there and he tells me he found a 114 link chain and that he would just do a straight swap because the difference was only a few bucks...this made me so HAPPY!!! lol then I asked if I could switch the 16t grooved I purchased from him for a 15t grooved and again he went and grabbed it and did a straight trade. Once at home I installed the new chain, cleaned and lubed it and I was ready! First of all the sprocket looks amazing! Feels tough but not as heavy as my old steel sprocket. I felt right away what +2 in the back did and loved it! it's been a couple weeks now and I have no regrets. He explained that the lifetime warranty really meant lifetime warranty and that they really don't ask you to send in the old chain and front sprocket along with the rear. Whenever you feel it's time to change just send in the old one and they ship you a new one no problem. Hope this helps. Thanks.
