Default 45-tooth rear sprocket question

I've been searching for a steel, 45-tooth rear sprocket, but can't seem to find any. Bike Bandit, Rocky Mountain, Dennis Kirk, Motorcycle Superstore, etc. all start at 46 or 47 teeth and go up. I've searched using both the KLX250s and KLX300. JT Sprockets website lists one, but they don't sell direct.

So my question to those of you who run a 45-tooth rear is, where did you buy it and what brand was it?

I have a Sidewinder Tri-Metal, 45 tooth that's sitting on my bench. Replaced it w\ a 47 to make 2nd gear more useable. Try oemcycle. Or PM me and ?? Later.

I have the jt 45t but can't remember where I got it ( that was 3 years ago). It is holding up well. I think it was listed under the klx300 where ever I got it.

use the 46, you won't notice any difference from the 45

Any sprocket listed for the KX250F will fit. Plenty of options there.

Yep thats the same one I have. I think I had the shop order mine and install with the muzzy and jetting.

I wanna change my front and rear sprocket. Is 13 in the front and 45 in the back the way to go and what size of chain would I need for that set up?

I'm looking for that happy medium between power and speed. My bike is my daily driver pretty much, but I do a lot of trails and pipe line riding. Which set is best all around?
