JTSprockets JTR279.30 30T Steel Rear Sprocket , black , 30 Tooth

1996 Honda Rebel 250, with 3K miles. Delivered today, took about 2 hours to install, very easy. Install with the recessed side toward the hub. Used existing chain, had to adjust brake pedal stop, under foot peg. Test drive results, still lots of power in lower gears, 5th gear smooth and 55MPH easily reach and maintained even on medium hills. Really lowered the RPM where they should be for a backroad cruiser, with plenty of town traffic power. Very happy with the sprocket quality and pricing. Ordered on a Friday, arrived on Monday, to our rural area.

I wanted to lower the RPM's on my 250 Rebel at highway speeds. At first I tried a 15 tooth front and a 32 tooth rear sprocket. That worked out great with the old worn and rusty 520 chain. When I got a new O'ring chain it was wider and thicker than the original chain. The 15 tooth front sprocket was suddenly too large. The thicker chain was too large to fit through the chain channel. Then I tried a 30 tooth rear sprocket and put the original 14 tooth front sprocket back on with my new O'ring chain. I got the same lower RPM results as the 15 / 32. Mathematically this may seem incorrect but it worked out good for me. I can't tell a difference. Hope this helps.

Amazon said it would not fit a 250 Rebel......Sure as heck fitted mine. 2012 Rebel 250.It really made the lower gears so so so much smoother.....still....it's a 250....gonna scream a bit at 60 mph. JT Sprokets always great....would do it again. Thankeyvarymauch

A year and some 600 miles later nothing to complain about. The 14/33 sprocket ratio changed to 14/30 and have not had any regrets. Baja Phoenix PX250 aka Hensim CR250 is the Chinese clone of Honda CB250 Nighthawk twin cylinder engine and Suzuki GZ250 Marauder frame. ** UPDATE 12/2012: now 15/30 sprockets. Spark plugs shows borderline too lean mixture. The 1st/2nd gears are fantastic now. The 5th gear is a bit handful for the bike, and too lean mixture doesn't help. Re-jetting with larger jets very soon...

sprocket is really thick and sturdy. not like the other aftermarket brands I get. we will se how long this lasts, but I have z good feeling it will last longer.

ZOOOOOOOM, love it. Easy to install with Clymer's manual.

This is perfect ratio I am looking for 15/30

the sproket is flat on both sides and does not have the part number engravings and didnt come in jt bag returned
