What’s on it at the moment and is that gearing what you want?

Kawasaki ZRX1200 - 2001 to 2004 chain and sprockets are 530, and has the same size spline for the front, and same diameter / spacings for the rear as a Z1000R. JT Sprockets list JTF1529 with a 16 or 17 teeth front sprocket. JTR488 with 38 - 47 teeth for rear sprocket.

Work it out with whatever front sprocket you’re going to use to get the same ratio as the stock setup. 530 sprocket usually a 17 tooth instead of 15 sums are pretty straightforward if you’ve not changed wheel sizes. 15/41 is 17/46 or 47 or 16/43 or 44

You also need to make sure any front sprocket offset is taken into account I haven’t actually seen a standard R2 sprocket but I have a feeling it has a slight boss on the inside/back of it, the distance collar on the shaft finishes pretty much flush with the oil seal so if the 530 sprocket you get is completely flat you may need a spacer or a remade distance collar to line the front and rear sprockets up, as well as to clear the seal and casing.
