Kind of silly I know but I hated the silver rear sprocket and replaced it with a new lighter better looking black sprocket

If it's aluminum you won't appreciate the wear.... best sticking to steel for longevity.
ITs steel not aluminum

No black chain?
No not yet I may eventually, I just couldn't take the look of the bright silver sprocket and that bothered me the most.

Don't forget the passenger foot pegs may as well get them black while your at it too.

That looks pretty sick, man. There are so many things I already want to buy and change on this bike. Thanks much for adding to the list.

Nice! Have the brand and part number? I think I'd like to get this when I have to replace mine.

Change out chain and sprocket for 520...use spray paint to color sprocket...use steel sprockets and no need for titanium sprocket bolts unless you are pulling 8sec passes

To go from 525 to 520, do you need to do anything other than buy a 520 chain, counter, and rear sprocket?

It can be done with no problems...a 2012 r1 has the same the teeth combo as the fz-07 in 520 size...I would use a x-ring chain or better...if an r1 has a 520 chain it's more than good enough for the Lil fz-07 in my book...

If you're doing a 520 conversion for max performance (which I'll get around to once I hit 20k miles), you may want to run a 2 piece sprocket. Aluminum hub, with steel outer like the superspox.  Will maybe post pics when I get to it, but they look like this:
