Need 17 tooth sprocket for GY-2

wilserchinarider · 07-11-2010, 05:16 PM

I have a 15/46 combination on a recently purchased Kinroad "lifanoid". The gearing seems low for anything but slow dirt riding. I'd like to switch out the front to a 17 and ahve my eye on this from ebay.

This is what the bike looks like...

Anyone have a better source that is "fit". Maybe it is the lack of balance shaft on the earlier OHC engine, but the early GY-2 vibrates like hell as the revs come up. The gy-5 w/ the 17/46 is much more pleasant to ride.

I am also looking for a chain gaurd (upper), appears to be an exact match w/ the GY5, and a kick stand.

Thanks for any suggestions.

I like JT sprockets. Take a look at your sprocket, measure the mounting points (like in the diagram) and confirm that this one is correct:

The only reason I would ever use a chain guard is if I was carrying a passenger.
