    Hello! First post from me :)

    So, I'm wondering what's a good replacement chain I can get, and what sprockets do you guys recommend (like how many teeth on the front and back).

    I am also wondering if anyone knows any cheap (decent) tyres I can get for her, it seems the rear tyre is from 1997 :/

    ZXR250 Tyres are always fun to find, the problem is that the rear has an 18" rim, verses almost everything else in the class have 17"s

    I always used the Dunlop GPR100 and GPR200 tyes on my ZXR's, You should be able to source a pair fitted for $400

    http://www.dunloptyres.com.au/dotCM...websegmentcode2=4&mtpcode=80108&from=nPerPage

    As your local bike shop what they can source for your bike, the 18" size does limit your choices somewhat

    i know this post is old but if you have the dough go for the gpr's, they dont last long and square off if you only ride around town, but they are probably the best street tyre you will get for the zxr, if not go the sport demon, good life and fairly sticky (not nearly as much as the gpr's though).
