Vortex CK6257 V3 HFR Quick Acceleration Chain and Sprocket Kit for Suzuki

The Vortex CK6257 is a V3 HFR (High-performance Fast Ratio) Quick Acceleration chain and sprocket kit engineered for Suzuki motorcycles. This complete kit delivers everything needed for a 520 chain and sprocket conversion out of the box, combining precision-manufactured sprockets with a high-performance x-ring chain for enhanced durability, reduced rotating mass, and improved acceleration.

Kit Includes:

• One induction-hardened steel front (countershaft) sprocket with drilled lightening holes for reduced rotating weight
• One aerospace-grade F5 aluminum rear sprocket with black hard-coat anodized finish for longevity (HFR-A = aluminum rear sprocket)
• One Vortex Performance Links 520-pitch x-ring chain — made in Japan to the highest quality specifications
• One rivet-type master link (chain tool required for proper installation)

Key Features:

• Quick Acceleration (HFR) Gearing — designed with a tighter gear ratio for improved low-end torque and faster take-offs compared to stock gearing
• Vortex V3 X-Ring Chain — tri-glide or dual-pocket seal design dramatically reduces heat and friction, delivering up to 7–10x the wear life of standard O-ring chains
• Aluminum Rear Sprocket — F5 Hardcoat anodized aluminum reduces unsprung weight and rotational mass for sharper throttle response
• Steel Front Sprocket — laser-cut chromoly steel with case-hardened teeth and electroplated satin black finish for corrosion resistance and extended service life
• No Cutting Required — each kit is bike-specific and pre-cut to the correct chain length for a straightforward, bolt-on installation
• Rivet-type master link included; clip-type links available separately
