Boy!! You need a new chain and sprocket BAD!!!

"fuckit!"
don't change the chain and leave the worn sprocket. worn sprocket will chew up the new chain.
front one also
i guess that makes sense.
"fuckit!"

Putting the end of the footpeg between your toes and the ball of your foot works well on bikes whose footpegs are high enough. But if you're dragging toes at all, then you have to tuck your toe in all the way with your heel often resting on the heel guard or the swingarm.
Until recently, I've had the stock ZX6R rearsets and touched them only occasionally.

That chain passed tech at a trackday?
It's all water under the bridge, and we do enter the next round-robin. Am I wrong?
yes... maybe it doesn't look that bad in person.
ok so what are my choices for chain? is everybody using DID? what else? i like the gold chain. ebay didn't have much choices. is clip type master link ok?
i checked STG but only saw 520. stock is 525-110. dont remember waht other places i saw before.

Kham you like to make simple things complicated don't you!
Get a 525 with Rivet style link (most name brand chains can take what ever you dish out, as long as you clean and lube it once and while).
Just hang with dbchromes he knows a thing or two about cleaning a chain!
Then have someone put it on for you.
DONE.

Considering how well you take care of your chains & sprockets, definitely stick with the 525 & use a rivet link

thanks DB. i dont care what anybody said. you're a good guy.
"fuckit!"
count your links on your current chain, many bikes have 112 links.thanks DB. i dont care what anybody said. you're a good guy.
it depends on ordering your chain, since you can get 110 or 120 link chains.
before installing your chain, clean that white wax shit off the chain with kerosene and a nylon brush ($1 at home depot). i would also suggest wearing gloves when using kerosene.
i cleaned chain today..
"fuckit!"
I ride a Buell XB9S with the standard 1" drop pegs in intermediate, and don't drag them. I used to when I first started tracking the bike, but have since adjusted my body position...
Always replace the sprockets with the chain
Looks WAY better...I was very scared by your first pic... But there's still a shitload of slack in there. And once you get your new one, clean it and lube it regularly!i cleaned chain today..
