HHR Performance - Chain & Sprockets

Our road kits allow you to further individualize your bike with colored racing sprockets and chains. It is imperative that road racers change their gear ratios so their bike revs out fully in its powerband. This helps racers to get the best performance possible for their lap times. Gearing your bike is critical in preparing a motorcycle for a particular track. To illustrate how important this is, let’s look at how a mountain bike and Tour De France bike differ. You would never ride a mountain bike during the Tour De France, and you’d never take a Tour De France bike up a mountain. The difference in performance would be very noticeable. If you aren’t using the appropriate gear ratios, you would see this same night and day performance difference when it comes to your motorcycle. You may not be riding a track that lets you use your 6th gear on a 1000cc superbike, so you need the 5 gears you do use to work for you. At the same time, on a lower cc bike, such as the Yamaha R3 or Ninja 300, you would not want all that weight hindering your ability to turn with a lower horsepower bike. In a scenario such as that, you would want to change the pitch to a 415, which is much lighter and does not need as much power to rotate.
