Default Re: Off center bicycle motor sprockets.

This is a royal pain..probably the biggest one related to these kits, IMO. Sometimes they go on centered the first try, and others never seem to center. I can tell you I've had better luck with the 36t sprockets and the smaller diameter 44t sprockets. Perhaps smaller diameter sprockets are more forgiving...just a guess.

Just to rant...I HATE HAVING TO TWEEK THE SPROCKET.
