    In the Process of Buying a 15 1190SX- Need Your Help!

    So I have just closed a deal with LAP to pick up a 15 1190SX in grey. Before parts pricing goes back up on the 16th, can you guys help me out with what I need to pick up? I have plans on a 42 sprocket, but is there anything else that is a must? It will be ridden often, a lot of both street an highway commuting.
    thanks!

    Tires, brake pads, rotors & mounting hardware if you can get it. Maybe a complete front sprocket or two to go with the rear.

    Gaskets for oil changes since your first one will be around 600 miles.

    Dean- I will be picking up a rotor, what is the life on the front sprocket?

    qurtrn- I don't see a gasket for an oil change listed. They don't come with the filters?

    I have a battery tender already, I was asking specifically about EBR parts, due to the price increase on the 16th. I've read several posts that say if you change to a 42 tooth rear sprocket it won't mess with the speedo or gear indicator. Has anyone verified this? thanks folks!

    I am with Dean, front sprockets, and chain sliders, rotor and mounting hardware would be nice, although I have never worn out a rotor, even with 5,000 track day miles.
    Air filter, pads any of the maintenance stuff would be good to have. From what I have read the sprocket should not mess with the speedo or gear indicator, just to be sure you can email EBR to verify

    Stock gearing *I think* includes 41-43 teeth rear sprockets, whatever it was for the front. Anything outside of that requires reprogramming of the ecm to keep the speedo correct. I want to say the front was 16 teeth.
    I know you can go either up or down on the front, but to keep the final drive ratio correct, you'd need to alter the rear at the same time. Some changes require a longer chain, so keep that in mind as well.
    The oil filter is commonly available, it's the same part as the 1125 Buell. Same with the front rotor, although the mounting hardware is 1190 specific. You *could* run an 1125 rotor up front if none are available.
