    You can try Bajaj New CT-100 sprocket which is 14T sorry I could not find any 15T sprockets having the same pitch and fitment holes. Pulsar 150/180's front sprocket may fit, though the chain pitch is minutely different.

    I thought chain velocity has nothing to do with acceleration as long as the ratio is optimal. I.e for example d200 has 42/14=3.00 and my 200NS has 39/13=3.00 (stock NS has a 39/14). Obviously due to bigger rear sprocket on the duke, the chain velocity is greater. What effect does that have?

    cant keep the wheel up for long.. will try with a new sprocket.. till then Practise Practise and Practise some more..

    Thankx for the sugesstion bro.. will try it out..

    Sticking with the stock is pretty much hassle free. You can get some aftermarket chains and sprocket, but here in India there isn't much on the sprocket, but you have aftermarket chain set. So I'd suggest if you'd like to avoid the hassle, stick to stock, as stock is basically the same Rolon kit.

    Right sir, these bed-time ideas sometimes make us read and learn something new.
    No drags for me. Just normal commuting.

    With inputs from senior members, I felt that a mere gain a 1 or 2sec in acceleration is not worth the mileage loss (on a already low mileage) and the decrease in the chain+sprocket life.

    And one more thing, if you know, do the svc sell individual sprockets or only the whole set with chain.?
    I guess a visit to a couple of svc is required.

    As per my knowledge they do not sell it individually. If thats the case then go for duke's rear one which I think would probably do enough.
    And I dont know what direct fit and pitch size means. I shall google it now

    Thanks
    will check for the rtr180's and R15's cost and get back.
