The search for sprockets has succeeded! Rear sprockets for Yamaha TX/XS 650 twins use 530 chain and bolt right on to TR-1 hub. Spacer had to be machined to substitute for thickness of chain enclosure. Front sprocket for Yamaha 650 or Honda Superhawk (CB77) fits on transmission output shaft, but TR-1 sprocket retainer ring will not fit because bolt holes in TR-1 sprocket are further apart. Honda sprocket retainer ring will work, but may be hard to find. Results: higher gearing (18/34 instead of 16/35), reduced unsprung weight, modern 530 o-ring chain.
