This 43-tooth precision-machined steel rear sprocket is designed for motorcycles running a 530 pitch drive chain. It serves as a direct replacement for worn rear sprockets or as a gearing adjustment, with the 43-tooth count providing a lower final drive ratio that favours stronger acceleration and mid-range torque over top-end speed.
Key Features
- 43-tooth rear sprocket for 530 pitch chain
- Precision-machined steel for enhanced power delivery, efficiency, and long wear life
- Lower final drive ratio for improved acceleration and responsive riding
- Suitable for street and performance motorcycle applications
What does a 43T rear sprocket do to performance?
More teeth on the rear sprocket lowers the overall gearing, increasing engine revs at any given speed for stronger acceleration and torque — at a modest reduction in maximum top speed.
Frequently Asked Questions
What chain pitch does this suit? Designed for 530 pitch chains — not compatible with 520 or 525 pitch chains. Always confirm your existing chain pitch before purchasing.
What else should I check before fitting? Verify your motorcycle's hub bolt pattern and swingarm clearance to ensure correct fitment for your specific model.
Should I replace my chain and front sprocket at the same time? Yes. Replacing the complete drivetrain together ensures even wear and maximises the service life of all components.
