I've added this upgrade onto my bike it's perfect only thing I found was that the front sprocket was a little loose even with the washer.
I'm hearing some noise but unsure if it's the upgrade so I can hear the chain go more now if if there's a problem.

Admin Reply: Thanks for your feedback, glad you love it like others do!💎 - If your font sprocket has a rattle, please investigate your drive shaft itself, we don't know if your own previous sprocket splines caused any issues to it etc, remember the original OEM sprocket from Hyosung is made in China, another owner made his bike chain adjustment too tight and he lost his engine shaft, so it was a mess! (his own fault) but the original sprocket was badly worn even inside the spline teeth connecting to the front engine shaft , so double check your setup! Remember to check chain slack and keep it lubed well!
Where do I start? The beginning I guess 😉
I bought this Beauty, a GV125-S last Month and was not happy with the Power and acceleration, or should I say missing Power of the 14 PS compared to my last ride a Yamaha XV 125 with 11 PS.
Dont get me wrong I noticed the difference, but she was just laggy, screaming at me, and the Vibrations when going above 8000 Revs. In 5th gear she hit 10-11000 revs and just stopped power wise, not going any faster than 105 Km/h on the dial.
In the German Group on Facebook it was suggested to upgrade the front Sprocket to one with 15 teeth, which I did, She run a little smoother through the Gears and the Engine sounded a bit quieter and wasnt screaming at me, but the loss in Power in the lower Gears, especially going from 2nd to 3rd, and the Top speed of 110 Km/h, which took me ages to get there, wasnt satisfactory, taking her up into the Red again to get here..
Then I saw Marcels post in that Group and decided to buy this Upgrade from the UK and have it shipped to Germany, thanks to Marcel here for the support.
What can I say? I took her out on a 3 Hour ride to test, what a difference!
The smaller front Sprocket (13) and the Larger Rear Sprocket (Dimension) and 520 Chain is the perfect combination.
She shoots up through the Gears, no Jerking, no screaming Engine, next to no Vibrations, just smooth and fast, at 9-10000 Revs in 4th Gear she hits 100 Km/h and in 5th I had her at 120 Km/h and felt like there was still more .... plus it was a windy day 😉
I also ordered the NGK Spark plugs and HT leads which just finishes off a perfect combination.
Thanks Marcel and Team, Season nears its end and I just cant wait to get out there next year, the Bike is so much fun now and I dont miss my Yamaha at all 😉
Bought these EGR blanking plates the other week and they look spot on, were delivered quick too. I'll upload a picture once I've rebuilt the engine.
Cheers
Wow such a huge difference, finally changed this myself. Not too scary. Straight swap for old kit. Didn't even need a gasket. Much sharper gear changes and acceleration. I highly recommend. On a scale of 1 to 10 it's about a 6 in mechanical knowledge. Remember to soak the plates and don't over tighten the bolts. It's a full oil change so have at least 2 litres handy
What a great kit this is!!
Delivery to belgium was very quick!
I'm happy with the result.
Don't have to shift as mutch as with the original chain. Lower revs and more accelaration. And a higher top speed. If you buy this kit you won't regret it!!
Top notch!
Thanks marcel!!! Greetz from belgium
