The claim that synthetic oil is detrimental is a myth. Regular engine oil that is labeled as energy conserving has friction modifiers that will make a clutch slip. Four stroke motorcycle oil (synthetic or conventional) does not. Spud has put 40,000 miles on his China bike using synthetic Rotella. Hard to argue with that.

If you remove the front sprocket and measure it, we can guide you towards a replacement. You'll need to measure the width and height of the grooves, and provide a major and minor ID. Make sense?

How many teeth on the rear sprocket?
