Are all Sprocket bolt patterns the same? - SV650.org

Hi all! Had to get new chain and sprockets for my 2000 SV. Ordered them from bikebandit and have had major problems with them . The sprockets were not in the box with the rest of my order! I finally got them to ship me some replacement sprockets and they are the same brand and tooth count as the original ones i ordered, but they say they are for different bikes. Are the bolt patterns the same for all bikes for the front and rear sprockets? Or am i going to have to try to get them to change my order?

Sprockets do vary between bikes but there are simillarities, for instance the front sprocket fitment on SVs is the the same as GSXRs- But make them send you what you have paid for!!

A lot of Suzukis are the same - the SV is the same as the bandit and early GSXR's.

But not the same as the Bandit 12, which has a 6-bolt carrier

Thanks for the replys guys. I was afraid they would be different. What a hassle!!

It's just one of those daft things Suzuki do, like the current GSXR thou, Bandit 12 and Busa all having different wheels.
