    GK,

    I did a Vortex replacement on my 700, I used a 98 Bandit 1200 for reference. It has the same sprocket carrier as the GS so any aftermarket sprocket that fits the B12 will fit your GS as well.

      Why would anybody even consider buying a used chain?

            A few things to consider:
            How many miles are really on the chain?
            How was it maintained?
            Was it properly aligned? The wear patterns are set in when first installed.

            You would be better served by purchasing a new set, maintaining it properly, and getting your 30k+ miles out of the set.

              And, since ALL sellers believe in full disclosure, they will NEVER lie to you about the condition of anything they are selling.

                Do yourself a favor, stay away from aluminum sprockets in general. Find a supersprox one instead.

                  Well I got all sorts of answers and not one that answered my question.....

                  ohhh well

                  guess I will go and find the info, or even ask Vortex themselves...

                  was not concerned so much about the chain as I was about the sprockets....the chain would have been a go or no go anyways...

                  Thanks, for the info provided...

                    Just go to any vendor and see if the sprocket numbers are the same for both bikes. We don't really know what fits the Triumph.

                      Paying anything for a used chain and or sprockets is a bad idea to begin with, now if you can get for free, that's a whole nother story.
