Talon in Yeovil, make offset sprockets. Ask Piggy for contact details if you cant find them.

I bought a 3/8 530x17 in error and was going to return it.

Would that suit you?

Just some useful info for anyone else, you can use a 530 pitch ZX10 (1988-90) front sprocket.
This has the same spline to fit the Z1000J/R and 1100/R/GPz.
It will give a 6.3mm offset but you can still put a 3mm washer behind it to give 10mm (3/8 inch) offset.
Sprocket ref is JTF527. Available in 16 and 17T
I've just fitted a 16T one with a washer behind it (ordered from B&C Express for about £15).
And as Zorded and I have discovered over the winter whilst changing wheels, it would appear on a standard Z/J it the front sprocket is 2-3mm offset!?
Probably an early design/tooling mistake that wasn't serious enough to bother correcting.

Brian
