This 46-tooth precision-machined steel rear sprocket is designed for motorcycles running a 530 pitch drive chain. With a higher tooth count, it provides a lower final drive ratio that delivers stronger acceleration and mid-range torque — making it a popular choice for riders looking to sharpen throttle response and low-end performance.
Key Features
- 46-tooth rear sprocket for 530 pitch chain
- Precision-machined steel for durability and efficient power delivery
- Lower final drive ratio for stronger acceleration and improved mid-range response
- Long service life — steel construction outlasts alloy alternatives
What does a 46T rear sprocket do to performance?
A larger rear sprocket lowers the overall gearing ratio, increasing engine revs at any given speed for more aggressive acceleration and torque. This comes at a modest reduction in maximum top speed.
Frequently Asked Questions
What chain pitch does this suit? Designed for 530 pitch chains. Always confirm your existing chain pitch before purchasing.
Should I replace my chain and front sprocket at the same time? Yes. Replacing the complete drivetrain together ensures even wear and maximises the longevity of all components.
What should I check before fitting this sprocket? Verify your motorcycle's hub bolt pattern and swingarm clearance to confirm correct fitment for your specific model.
