Only... when I zoom over the front sprocket I see it's an 18t one and not a 17t...

I hope that is just a generic picture  :(

The writeup says OE spec ....

I'll report back

All arrived today - they were generic photos as all correct sprockets and chain cut to correct number of links

So all good to go Saturday  :)

Nice one Simon - great when you get the right bits.

PS I think Roo has sorted my missing brake pedal return spring problem. He is posting me what looks like the right one.

Absolutely I've been on HOLD mode for almost a week

In my head I have an assembly order plan so I can't paint the engine cases until the rear swing arm is in place.

Very good deal then. I wish I could get that set here for that price...
The Tsubaki is the better chain. The ones I had long time ago, came new with grease in the links.
