520 sprocket source
Currently having my stock T500 sprockets machined down to 520 but would like to find a source for a 17 tooth front. Maybe larger if I can fit it in there.

Wow, what are you doing that would require you to raise the gearing by 2 teeth on the front sprocket ?. The #520 front sprockets for the Suzuki RM250 fit the T500 but I don't know if they go to 17 teeth.
Cheers Geoff

Hi Geoff, running a back wheel off a CR500 (I think) so it's not possible to go much lower on my rear sprocket teeth. Kris Laviree's old bike.

Hi gordo,
Ahh, see where you are coming from. I found on my Seeley T500 that I use much lower gearing compared to std. even with a more powerful race engine. A case of matching your gearing to suit the application.
