I already have
a thread for it. It was identified when the chain became far too
loose.
It's a JT sprocket and
the model number checks out (JTR486.41). It has the same JT logo as the original OEM sprocket, so I assume that it's the same material (I believe it would be marked "JTA" if it were alloy). I even got the front sprocket specific to the current gen despite it being hard to find and everyone insisting that it wasn't needed. They all insisted that using the old part without a shim would cause a little extra wear on the chain and sprockets, so I went out of my way to REDUCE that because I wanted to get many more miles out of the whole setup.
