I've run into a dead end trying to source a new 36T rear sprocket (STEEL) for a Gen 1 Hayabusa. Any help is appreciated. PM if you have 1 or 2 for sale. Thanks, Mark

Thanks for the help. Sprocket Specialists are out of the steel sprockets (imported), PBI is aluminum. This may be my only option is to use aluminum.

turbojonn · « **Reply #13 on:** May 27, 2013, 12:35:48 AM »

Hey over 200, is that 36 a 530? How much if so?

Stubbs · « **Reply #14 on:** May 29, 2013, 08:47:24 PM »

it's headed your way

Anyone ever find a 36T steel sprocket? (Sorry to resurrect an old thread!)

Oz Booster · « **Reply #16 on:** August 30, 2014, 09:17:23 AM »

I had mine made,local engineer supplied an industrial steel plate sprocket and cut the centre and bolt holes

MarkScott · « **Reply #17 on:** August 30, 2014, 10:10:16 AM »

I recently ordered a alum 36T from Vortex with good results for my LSR bike. I'd still prefer steel but Sprocket Specialists didn't have them. That is where I bought originally. Good luck. Mark

Mattymatt · « **Reply #18 on:** September 01, 2014, 06:18:32 AM »

Thanks for the quick reply, guys. I appreciate it.

Mark- I'm wanting to do a 36T for street and interstate riding. In your experience, how well does the aluminum hold up? I really don't want to have to change out sprockets at oil changes.

The "softer" nature of the alloy sprocket might give extended
chain life. At $350 for a very good chain, the cost of replacing the
rear sprocket occasionally might be a savings.

MarkScott · « **Reply #20 on:** September 01, 2014, 11:52:11 AM »

I used a 530ZZZ Chain and the alum sprocket looks fine. Proper chain tension and maintenance will keep your parts lasting longer. If you go to Brock's Performance website, he has a Hayabusa gearing calculator that works well. Or just google it.

How many miles should I expect an aluminum sprocket to last (assuming no racing...), specifically on a Hayabusa? I'm not concerned about looks so much... I'm more concerned about needing to replace a soft sprocket a year after I put it on.

wildphil69 · « **Reply #22 on:** September 06, 2014, 10:11:40 PM »

Aluminum will last as long as steel with a good chain and proper maintenance.

I have a brand new, never used in the package Vortex 36t 1st gen I'd be willing to give up if you can't come up with one.
