The stock sprockets look almost new. No hooking or shortening of the teeth. After I cleaned and lubed the chain last night, it's much smoother and quieter. Still going to replace soon. At the tightest point, it's in spec, but at the loosest it's nearly double. That's checking it where my manual says to (middle of bottom run)- I've heard several other ways that just sound dumb. Like pulling the chain off the rear of the sprocket. Supposedly it's good until you can see half a tooth under the chain.
