: Anyone need an OEM 16T Sprocket

I know is probably belongs in the classifieds, but they don't seem to active these days.

I ordered a 16T OEM sprocket, PN# 13144-0038 for the Ninja 650R from my local dealer. After waiting a month, Kawasaki was still out of stock, so I ordered a rear 44T instead. Fast forward a few days and now my dealer has the 16T in stock for me. I just figured I'd see if anyone here needed it before I told them to send it back. It's been backordered for weeks through Kawi.

I think it was $37 and change. If you want it, I can buy it and send it to you. Let's say $45 with shipping to cover the taxes and shipping costs. Lemme know in the next day or two, or I'll just tell them to send it back. Thanks.

I love it. The 44T rear puts the ratio at 2.93, vs. 3.06 stock and 2.875 with a 16T front. So its in between, but close to the 16T front.

Have you noticed a difference in RPM's at highway speed's ? How's the accuracy of the speedometer ?

70 mph = 5k rpm. I have not noticed a perceptible lack of acceleration due to this mod. It just feels right!
