FAQs
Does this sprocket come with mounting hardware?
No, the package typically includes the sprocket itself; you should reuse your existing mounting hardware unless it shows signs of wear.
Can I install this on any motorcycle?
No, you must ensure the sprocket is compatible with your specific motorcycle's make, model, and year to match the spline count and pitch.
What is the benefit of the rubber cushioning?
The rubber cushioning dampens the metal-on-metal contact between the chain and the sprocket teeth, significantly reducing drivetrain noise and vibration.
Do I need to replace my chain when I change the sprocket?
It is highly recommended to replace the chain and rear sprocket at the same time to ensure even wear and longevity of the drivetrain.
How often should I replace the front sprocket?
You should inspect your sprocket at every oil change or chain adjustment. If the teeth appear 'hooked' or pointed, it is time for a replacement.
Troubleshooting
Increased noise or vibration after installation
Check chain tension and alignment. Ensure the rubber cushioning is not obstructed.
Sprocket does not seat fully on the shaft
Check for debris on the countershaft splines and verify the part number compatibility for your specific motorcycle model.
Chain rubbing against the case
Verify clearance specifications. If the new sprocket is larger than OEM, you may require a case saver spacer or modification.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation should be performed with standard shop tools, ensuring the sprocket is seated correctly on the countershaft splines. Always verify that the locking mechanism or bolt is torqued to your motorcycle's specific service manual requirements.
Compatibility Note: Always verify that the sprocket has proper clearance against the engine case or sprocket cover, especially if you are changing the tooth count from your factory setup.
Care Instructions:
- Regularly inspect the teeth for hooked wear patterns.
- Maintain proper chain tension to prevent premature sprocket wear.
- Keep the drivetrain clean and properly lubricated to maximize the benefits of the bead-blasted finish.
