Default Where to get an offset front sprocket?

I need an offset front sprocket for my old z750e project. I've sent out a few e-mails to some likely looking candidates but I was wondering if anyone on the forum had some first hand experience of buying, using or manufacturing such an item.

Everyone says that they're easy to find on line but I'm buggered if I can find anything in the UK!

I'm looking for a 525 with a 7mm offset...

Anyone on the forum up for the job, I'd like to keep the money in the family!

Thanks,

Mark

Think there was a thing advertised in streetfighters and such think it might have been talon engineering or someone like that.

I'd ring b and c express too there might be something off the shelf.


Alternatively find a bolt on flange type one and make a custom adaptor so at least then your sprocket is a standard part.

Ask a drag race specialist; Straightline Racing or Big CC for instance.

I went with A R Harley in the end as they came back with a 2-3 week turn around against a 6-8 with Talon.
