Front forks and other bits, where to buy?
Noelia:
Hi all, I have been having a look at the chain at wemoto and others, they're too many chains and don't know which one I do need, can anyone give me a hand and tell which chain and wheel sprocket I need please?
Thanks

Not sure what you are looking for ?
1) STD chain ?
2) 0'ring chain ?
3) X'ring chain ?
The front sprocket should be 17 tooth, rear 34 tooth with a 100 link chain at 530. If you are fitting a 0'ring or X'ring, you will need a special tool to fit the link.
Just found this one going cheap >>> http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Honda-CB500-K1-K2-K3-1972-Choho-H-D-Gold-Chain-and-Sprocket-Kit-/261944793037?hash=item3cfd2057cd

I'd stick to a standard chain, you can get clearance issues with the other types which makes it harder to find one that you can be certain will be ok.
If you use Wemoto I'd go for the heavy duty DID, I'm using them on two bikes one of which seems to eat chains and the DID lasts longer than most.

Did are well worth their cost, I have run o ring ones on my bikes, not had any issues and they do last well, I have heard of others having issues on clearence - but since I was already running one without issues I shall just carry on, maybe just keeping an eye out for ally swarf on the chain just in case :o
Noelia:
I want to go standard
DID super heavy duty chain non o-ring
The part number for this BC-3012040 and the price is £62.60
And standard rear sprocket by JT is part number BJ-JTR-282x34 This is priced at £18.58.
Would the above be right set up?
