Pretty sure they were 1/2 the width of the sprocket, or at least much thinner in width than an 1125 belt is.

Yes that is normal, that is how they are. The rear sprocket is significantly wider than the belt, but the front one is the right width.

You can see the wear on the outer half of the sprocket from the belt - http://assets.suredone.com/1533/media-photos/br238 6-2008-buell-blast-500-p3-oem-rear-wheel-sprocket- belt-drive-4.jpg

The rest of the sprocket is basically a giant spacer.
