    gs750 Offset Sprocket???

    I'm hacking up the old '78 GS750 ('83 Katana Forks, TX650 Alloy Front Rim, GS1100 aluminum s-Arm, hacksawed rear frame rails, Solo Seat, etc) and I'd like to go a little wider in the rear...

    I've already laced up an Akront 18"x3.5" alloy rim to a KZ1000 rear hub (disc model - Same axle OD as the Suzi) and I have a vintage offset torque link. I can fabricate a spacer plate for the rear sprocket, but I have yet to locate the last piece of the puzzle - an offset sprocket for a GS750.

    I've seen offset sprockets for GS1000/1100 (and KZ/Z1) - But none for the little brother 750. Does anyone know of a source OR does anyone know if 1000/1100 and 750 engine sprockets have the same spline? I'm not doing a radical drag race thing, but a 5/8" offset would definitely help!

    Thanks,
    Pete

      5/8" is a lot of off set. I do not know if it will work I have heard that you can use a sprocket from the old Kaw of the same vintage for 3/8 off set, that with some shims??

          Phil is a great guy, he cut my last chain for free and swapped the rivet link for a clip link on my request. I'll vouch for his speedy delivery and email replies too.
