The Vortex 822C-46 is a 46-tooth colored anodized aluminum rear sprocket designed for high-performance motorcycle applications. Manufactured by Vortex Racing, a trusted name in American-made motorcycle drivetrain components, this sprocket delivers a premium combination of lightweight construction and precise engineering.

Key Features:

• 100% CNC manufactured in the USA for consistent quality and tight tolerances
• Specially formulated aluminum alloy per Vortex specifications for optimal strength-to-weight ratio
• Colored anodized finish applied before cutting, resulting in the iconic two-tone machined appearance Vortex is known for
• Unique CAT5 tooth profile — Vortex's patented tooth design engineered to maximize sprocket longevity and chain wear
• 46-tooth rear sprocket — increases rear torque and low-end acceleration compared to stock gearing
• Reduces rotating mass for improved throttle response and rear-wheel power delivery

Vortex aluminum rear sprockets are a popular choice for street, track, and racing applications where weight savings are critical. The anodized coating provides corrosion resistance while adding a distinctive look to your drivetrain. As with all aluminum sprockets, regular chain cleaning and tension checks every 300–400 miles will maximize service life.

Note: Verify chain pitch compatibility before installation. When changing sprocket tooth count, ensure the chain length is adjusted accordingly.
