No Yamaha chainwheel fits. No nothing aftermarket fits pretty much.
The 41t for the Ducati Paso does fit the bolt pattern but is for a 530 chain, so the chainwheel needs to be turned down on the outside to fit the 520 chain. Does work and I have uses an AFAM chainwheel for the Paso myself.

You'll just have to order the replacement from MZ if you really want the steel cog again. I certainly would not!
Best place to go is here:

you can write your email in English:
sieg@ls-motorradteile.de
Leonard will CNC mill any chainwheel you want in short order. Just tell him it's for the Skorpion (he has a Skorpion himself) and how many teeth it should have. He will gladly also supply front sprokets and chains.
In a pinch, I can oder it from him and send it, thus presumably avoiding customs and the payment hassle of currency exchange. If that is an option, write my offlist.

There must be a company in the states milling chainwheels, tho.

sprocket specialties will make sprockets for just about anything, with any amount of teeth you want, in steel, or alloy. they have patterns for many obscure bikes. have your local Moto shop contact them direct.

If I get enough requests for the 43 or 45, I'll place an order.
I have the 39 in Steel by Jt Sprockets, and they look better than the OE.
Also a pair of ALU 36 and 37 rear sprockets.

I get about 24K miles on Skorpion with the OE sprockets.
The front sprocket lasted about 36K miles before it got too hooky looking.
I'm using an RK XSO chain, which is also way better quality than the OE junk.

Regards,
henri
