Pull the current sprocket and run down to the local dealership and see if they can match it up. Even the stealerships only charge $15.00 for a countershaft sprocket. They should at least be able to point you in the right direction if they don't have the size you need.

I have always thought a 5th gear would be nice but also wondered if it would allow you to out ride the suspension. I will ask Eugene about different sprockets today too.

There are no sprockets available from Jetmoto exceptfor stock replacement items. Eugene suggested Sprocket Specialists too. I know the XR200 uses a 520 chain but was just thinking my XR75 uses a 428. I might try Scooters idea. It would be nice to compare it to a whole bunch of sprockets.

Here is what I found out after my test ride of the Jetmoto 200 :
Positives:
Has plenty of take off power
Sounds good with the stock pipe setup.
Will bring the front end up in 1 st,2nd and third going up an incline if you really pull up on it. ( remember this is break in so I am not really hard on it).
Negatives:
Headlights point to the ground about 5 feet in front of you.
All gears are too low, need a 5 speed or smaller countershaft sprocket.
This is all I can think of at the moment, all in all this is a fun machine .
Thanks,
D.
BTW: Has anyone noticed the gear ratio , has anyone looked into a bigger counter sprocket ? All the gears are too low for my taste . How about a countershaft sprocket off of a Honda XR200 , would this work ? I think 1 tooth bigger would make a heck of a difference.

I was reading over my posting . I actually need a LARGER countershaft sprocket not a smaller one. MyWife, what did you find out about the sprockets . I have an idea if you want to check on something for me . Can you check on the spline size on the countershaft sprocket on your XR200 ? Unless, it has a 520 chain then the sprocket pitch is too big.
What did Jetmoto say about the sprockets when you talked to them on Friday ?
Thanks,
D.

you can try sprocket specialists to they are pretty good about matching them up and the prices are fair
