Hey mate,
The received wisdom amongst Hornet owners is that OEM sprockets are best because some of the aftermarket ones don't have the rubber mounts that the OEM ones do. This makes the bike much noisier to ride.
Also, don't go for the after-market alloy ones as the simply don't last. Make sure they're steel of hardened alloy.
Change the chain and sprocket at the same time.
For cheap OEM parts try
David Silver Spares and fit 'em yourself.
