time to change sprocket?
Hi,
I need a 2nd opinion on this one as I'm not used to scheduling the maintainance on my bikes.. Is this ready for replacement? Or is it good for some more time? Untitled by rousp1, on Flickr

No, that sprocket looks good still to me. When your sprocket starts to wear it the teeth will thin and the spaces between the teeth will widen. This link has an illustration of what sprocket wear looks like.
http://www.canyonchasers.net/shop/ge...chain-rplc.php You should also check your chain. I found this to be helpful, it is not specifically for Ninjettes, but the basic principals still apply... http://faq.f650.com/FAQs/GeneralChai... and sprockets

when the teeth start to have a "hooked" appearance, (i.e. not uniform), then it's time to replace.
