I'm an aluminium fan as long as the application is right. In my case we were talking 30.4 HP on a standard CBR300 for hard sports riding duties and the odd track day in a novice class.
So even I was surprised how much mileage I got out of it.

Also, there are different grades of aluminium and like a lot of things in life, it seems to be a case of you get what you pay for.
I forked out $50 for mine from PMP sprockets in Texas. They offer a hard coat option as well for another $14. Probably a good option for racers but i didnt go with it and still got 25,000km out of a standard one. Very happy with both the product and the service.
