FAQs
What material is the JT Sprocket - 15T Front made from?
It is made from C45 steel and SCM415 chromoly steel alloy.
Does this sprocket reduce noise?
Yes, it features a rubber cushion designed to dampen chain impact and reduce operational noise.
What does 'heat-treated and bead-blasted' mean for performance?
These processes reduce material surface tension, which enhances the sprocket's durability and longevity.
Is this a direct replacement for all motorcycles?
It is designed to fit many motorcycles, but always verify fitment for your specific make, model, and year. Especially check clearances if deviating from OEM size.
What is the tooth count of this front sprocket?
This is a 15-tooth (15T) front sprocket.
How does a 15T front sprocket affect my motorcycle's performance?
A 15T front sprocket generally provides slightly better acceleration compared to a larger front sprocket (e.g., 16T), potentially at the expense of some top-end speed.
Can I install this myself?
Installation is recommended for qualified technicians due to the critical nature of drivetrain components and the need for precise clearance checks.
Troubleshooting
Excessive noise after installation
Ensure the rubber cushion is correctly seated and not damaged. Verify chain alignment and that no components are rubbing against the sprocket.
Chain slipping or skipping
Check chain tension according to your motorcycle's service manual. Inspect the sprocket teeth for wear or damage. Ensure the chain is the correct size and in good condition.
Premature wear on sprocket teeth
Confirm proper chain lubrication and tension. Check for any debris or grit trapped between the chain and sprocket. Ensure the correct type of chain is being used.
Spocket does not fit correctly
Double-check the part number against your motorcycle's specifications. Verify that no modifications were made to the motorcycle's mounting area.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Installation of the JT Sprocket - 15T Front should be performed by a qualified technician. Ensure the motorcycle is properly supported before starting. Remove the old sprocket and clean the mounting area thoroughly. When installing sprockets that differ from OEM sizes, always check for proper clearances between the sprocket, chain, swingarm, and any other surrounding components before operating the vehicle. Failure to do so can lead to damage or accidents.
