Title: Will this sprocket fit in my gs500f?
Post by: RLeav20717 on April 09, 2012, 10:45:19 AM
Hey everyone, new to the site, looking forward to interacting with you all!

I have a 2009 GS500F, and after reading on the forums, I decided I wanted to purchase a 17T front sprocket...I just want to make sure I bought the right one :\

JTF520.17 is what I purchased...any help is appreciated!

No, that's for a 525 chain which is 5/16" wide.  GS500/E/F chain is a 520 which is 1/4" wide.

A JTF512.17 will fit:
