Depending on what you want it for there may be a much better product. If you need it for a "traction" application diamond tread plate sucks.

I would get a second opinion, I would think a 02 bike with 10k , the steering head bearing should be fine. I ride a 02 with 50k and my head bearings are fine. Sounds fishy to me

You will be going to a 520 chain if you are changing the sprockets

Princess auto has them, some in the lighting/wiring section, some in the speaker wire section. its called a "DISTRIBUTION BLOCK" sayal will have more selection.
