FAQs
What material is this sprocket made of?
It is made of Japanese C45 high carbon steel, which is known for its high tensile strength and wear resistance.
Does the self-cleaning design actually work?
Yes, the grooves are specifically engineered to push mud and debris away from the contact point between the chain and the sprocket.
Can I install this on any bike?
No, you must ensure the bolt pattern and the chain pitch (e.g., 520, 525) match your specific motorcycle model.
How often should I replace my sprocket?
Sprockets should generally be replaced when the teeth appear 'hooked' or pointed, or when replacing the drive chain.
Is this sprocket suitable for road racing?
Yes, its strength-to-weight optimization makes it suitable for high-performance road and track applications.
Do I need special tools to change the sprocket?
You will need a socket set, a torque wrench, and potentially a rear stand to lift the motorcycle.
Troubleshooting
Chain making clicking noises after installation
Check chain tension; the chain may be too tight or misaligned with the front sprocket.
Excessive wear on teeth after short period
Verify that you are using the correct chain pitch and ensure the chain is not stretched or worn beyond service limits.
Sprocket bolts coming loose
Ensure the bolts were torqued to manufacturer specifications and that a medium or high-strength thread-locker was applied.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Exceptional durability from high-quality C45 steel
- Self-cleaning profile maintains performance in dirty conditions
- Lightweight construction reduces unsprung mass
- Meets or exceeds industry quality standards
Cons
- Requires specific toolset for installation
- Must be paired with a compatible chain pitch
- Standard steel finish may be prone to surface rust if not lubricated
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, ensure the motorcycle is on a secure stand with the rear wheel off the ground. Remove the axle nut and swingarm pivot to access the sprocket carrier. Clean the carrier surface thoroughly before seating the new JT Sprocket. Always use high-strength thread-locking fluid on the sprocket bolts and tighten them to the torque specification provided in your motorcycle's service manual.
Compatibility Note: This is a 36-tooth sprocket; verify the pitch (e.g., 520, 525, or 530) matches your existing drive system exactly before attempting installation. For maintenance, keep the sprocket well-lubricated with a high-quality motorcycle chain wax or spray to prevent oxidation and ensure the chain glides smoothly over the teeth.
