How long do the sprockets last?
My 08 Ninja 250 got 67k miles. I changed the chain three times but still have the original sprockets.

Good quality steel sprockets will outlast the chain no doubt....
However, this thread will turn into basically 2 camps; replace everything (front, rear, chain) all at the same time, and the "who cares" crowd. Your call....

Sorry, didn't answer your question,
A well cared for stock chain should last around 7-10k (ish) miles. It will heavily depend on your riding habits, style, environment, and maintenance. There is no correct answer here.

too many variables to compute. As in any variable you can think of comes to play.

As long as your sprockets don't show signs of adverse wear I wouldn't worry about it.
