The best upgrade you can make on this bike. Those sprockets change everything - acceleration, higher max speed, better rmp/speed ratio. I'm super happy and I'd do it again, anytime. The only suggestion to Marcel I'd have is to offer the front sprocket with rubber to make the chain work quieter with less vibrations. All the rest, 10/10!
After a little bit of a struggle I finally got the kit on! Thanks to the forum post that front sprocket was a right ass to get off!
The bike feels much nicer to get up to speed, it feels a lot smoother and nicer to ride! So far I’ve noticed an increase of about 5mph on the top speed but I haven’t pushed it to see how far it will go but that extra 5mph gives a more comfortable carriageway experience.
Highly reccomend!
Installed on RC 2018. This will be longer than most reviews but want to get all the details down to help you guys decide.
Ladies and gents, the big ticket item on here for the GT family. If you enjoy performance and speed, then my god is it worth it. The damping and preload makes bumps and crests effortless, no bottoming out and chain is free to do it's thing. I have managed to test it here in Ulster on the road race tracks (not when closed roads sadly) and it performed like a dream, ride flows from section to section, cornering is massively improved, I can't fault it. Adjustment is relatively simple, I'm 85kg/6 ft4 so some adjustment/firming was needed out of the box, but all very straightforward, plus a higher set ride height is noticeable for me. Installation is one for one with OEM, would recommend mechanic there to give the bones and links a once over/lubrication and for an extra pair of hands. It is a larger price tag, but it's not everyday we get a company like YSS making a specific product for Hyo's. If you are on the fence, then definitely go for it.
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!
Item arrived quickly, with everything needed. I was sent a 13 tooth front sprocket.
Have had it installed for a few days and can say while I have not seen the full speed increase (my daily commute to work is along a road with many declines and inclines) I can say that my commute is a bit quicker with this installed and I have seen higher average speeds overall. Also taking off from a stop feels better with the kit installed too. Have seen about a 3 to 5mph (speedo) increase in the gears 1-4.
First time installing something like this I had all the tools needed (torque wrench, impact gun, socket set and hammer) had it done within 2 hours having read the instructions the day before so it was a straight forward and logical install (mostly need instructions for the torque specs). Only thing I had help with was holding the rear brake while torquing the front sprocket nut.
Only complaint about the kit on my bike with this is that the chain adjustment needed to be set close to the maximum adjustment to remove excess slack in chain.
If I have the bike when it comes time to replace the sprockets I will be purchasing this kit again.
Starting with the quality of the wire work, excellently put together. As for longevity, I made this switch around 4k miles when my stock regulator went out. I decided to just replace the stator as well. (The stator provided by Marcel was a ElectroSport USA stator]
It has been three years since I've had these parts and they have continued to hold up. I blew one regulator fuse(THANK YOU) and that is from pushing the bike to the absolutely limit(6 months ago) on a speedrun to get to an Autoparts shop for a drainplug for my car before they closed.
If you are looking to replace the stock reg and stator I would trust the work put out here. They know where to find quality parts. If it wasn't for wanting to not mess with this again, I would pick up a Shinden set that is still floating around here.
