Vortex 826KV4-45 V4 Aluminum Rear Sprocket 45T

The Vortex 826KV4-45 is a 45-tooth V4 series CNC-machined aluminum rear sprocket built for performance motorcycle applications. The V4 line represents the next evolution of Vortex Racing's aluminum sprocket platform, incorporating refinements in design, manufacturing, and material optimization aimed at improving strength, weight balance, and consistency.

Key Features:

• 45-Tooth aluminum rear sprocket — reduces rotating mass compared to OEM steel sprockets for improved throttle response and acceleration
• 100% CNC manufactured in the USA — machined to tight tolerances for precise fitment and consistent performance
• Specially formulated aluminum alloy per Vortex specifications — engineered for an optimal balance of strength and weight savings
• Anodized finish — applied prior to final machining, producing Vortex's signature two-tone machined appearance while protecting against corrosion and oxidation
• Unique patented tooth design — engineered to extend sprocket longevity and optimize power transfer through the drivetrain
• V4 platform construction — the latest generation Vortex sprocket design, trusted by professional road racing, track day, and performance street riders worldwide

Aluminum sprockets deliver significant weight savings over steel, making them the preferred choice for racing and performance applications where reduced rotational mass translates directly to faster acceleration, sharper deceleration, and more responsive handling. For best results, maintain proper chain tension and cleanliness when running aluminum sprockets.
