I was re waxing my chain and noticed there were wear on the sides of the wheel. Is this normal, time to replace. It has been jumping teeth when I put the power down on hills mostly.

Yes.
Those aren’t teeth, they’re straight gums.
that jockey wheel was worn out about 1k km ago
Waxing your chain? On a 50year old shitbike like this? Damn, son. What is this? Simplex 6speed?
They aren’t just toast, they’re burnt toast.
A Little bit
yup
Gone from Daddy shark to Grandpa shark
Umm that’s not a jockey wheel anymore. Lol yes it’s time to replace.
congrats my man. That drivetrain served you well
I think that’s an old french chain. not standard pitch. Can you still find new chains for that?
Might be a good time for a complete drivetrain swap?
I had to.swap out the drivetrain on my old french bike. Running triple chainring and 8 speed rear and original friction shifter.
It’s not easy but it’s cheap and the benefits in terms of gear range is huge
Yes
What jockey wheels?
