Are all Sprocket bolt patterns the same? - Motorcycle-Journal Forums

Hi all! Had to get new chain and sprockets for my 2000 SV. Ordered them from bikebandit and have had major problems with them . The sprockets were not in the box with the rest of my order! I finally got them to ship me some replacement sprockets and they are the same brand and tooth count as the original ones i ordered, but they say they are for different bikes. Are the bolt patterns the same for all bikes for the front and rear sprockets? Or am i going to have to try to get them to change my order?

Why would they ship a different set of sprockets if they even tell you they are for a different bike?

Hard to say. Are the bikes listed the same model but different year? Or are they a totally different brand of bike alltogether? Listings on the package don't always reflect all that it fits.

One was same brand but different bike and one was completely different brand. I contacted the customer support today and they assured me they were the same parts and that the computer just randomly picked a bike b/c it was a re-order. I really hope they fit.... I cant stand it when my baby's sick!
