I've done some searching on here..and can't seem to find a brand/partnumber or application that fits for everybody......Everyone seems to have a different opinion what fits..So what fits?

 

I don't remember the application but a sunstar will work. It has the raised center and fits correctly. Part #34213. I got mine from Bobs cycle supply, His part number, 79120

 

I ordered mine from dennis kirk. It is a front sprocket for a honda XR650L. I had a hard time finding one for a 250 ninja(which will also fit).

 

I used the Moose #1212-0198 342-13.

These also fit:
Sprocket Specialist #514XK-13
AFAM #24502

What is best? I think it is what can you find.

 

I have a JT sprocket for the Honda XR650L. It fits perfectly and is beautifully machined.I do not notice any additional noise either compared to the damped stock sprocket.

The part number is JTF309.13

 

Got mine from Sprocket Specialists: http://www.sprocketspecialists.com/

Search for P/N: 514XK-13

http://www.sprocketspecialists.com/P...roductID=15665

Part Number: 514XK-13
Price: $24.99
Front Steel Sprocket (C/S)/Std/13 Teeth/For 520 chain

 

OK, so everyone agrees (well, a lot of people, anyway) that a 13 tooth sprocket is the way to go.

My problem is that I couldn't find one, when I found one, the vendor (Read: "MAW") wouldn't ship to Canada, nor would they even send it to my buddy in Connecticut because I charged it to a Canadian Mastercard!?!! (Jeez, they think a $15.95 purchase must be part of aHUGE international credit card scam!!!)

Anyway, the parts guy at my local Kawasaki dealer (Ottawa Goodtime Center) did a great job cross referencing the part numbers I gave him with his arsenal of parts catalogs and bikes and suppliers, and tracked down a Kimpex part number, at a better price, and had it for me in 3 days!!!

Anyway, here's the list of sprockets and part numbers that I've compiled:

JT Sprockets: JTF516-13
Sprocket Specialists: 514XK-13
Sunstar: 34113
Kimpex: 101006

The Kimpex has the shoulder built in, so no spacer is needed. Didn't notice any increase in chain noise, either. The only thing that would have made the whole experience better was if it was easier to loosen the dam nut to get the sprocket off!!! (Yes, I did unbend the retaining washer beforehand ... it was still a bitch to get off!)

Hope this helps!

Mike

I got the Honda one from my friendly Honda shop

 

I Just ordered the moose one from Dennis Kirk....in the next month or two I'll be buying an exhaust....

I'm getting bored with it so I gotta do soemthing to keep me a little more interested....an exhaust and a 13 tooth should hopefully helpkeep the front wheel a little more intimate with the sky(that and some practice on my part..lol)
