I pulled out the high price Dennis Kirk catalog...great for at least
cross referencing.
The YZF1000R-97'....uses the same type sprockets as the GTS. It has
a notation in the book for converting a YZF to a 530 chain. It
basically says use the FZR 750R 87-88 sprockets to convert. Using
these numbers and putting the number of teeth 17 and 47 for the GTS I
checked prices in a few places.
The best prices where from Competition Accessories. A 120 link DID
ZVM 530 chain was 120.95,, the Gold Link is about $20 bucks less.
The front 17 tooth sprocket was 1$6.95 and rear 47 tooth steel rear
was $32.95.
I just finished fabrication and installing my mount for my
StreetPilot GPS and Valentine Radar detector. If anyone is
interested I'm email a photo.
