    Sprockets/Chain for 82 GS550L

    Alright, I'm helping a buddy change out his sprockets and chain and am looking around for parts. Supposedly the front sprocket is 15T and the rear is 49T with the chain being 530x108.
    The problem is that I can't find a 49T rear at any shop and am having difficulty at reputable places online.

    Surely I can't be the only one with this issue, unless I have the specs wrong (I don't have the bike in front of me to count the teeth out).

    So can anyone verify the correct stock gearing for an 82 GS550? If the stock isn't possible, what's a good alternative?

    Thanks

    Check out Basscliff's site and specifically this page here - http://members.dslextreme.com/users/...uki_Specs.html

    It will show you the chain and sprocket needs for all of the GSs. Your information is correct though

    Here's a link to Z1 Enterprises and two different 49t rear sprockets


    and for the front 15t
