Description

Upgrade your Yamaha RD or R5 with our lightweight 520 conversion rear sprocket. Designed to replace the stock 530-pitch sprocket on stock RD models and the 525-pitch sprocket on R5 models, this sprocket allows the use of modern, lighter 520 chain/sprocket set for improved performance and reduced rotating mass.

Manufactured in the USA from premium aircraft-grade aluminum, each sprocket is hard anodized in black for exceptional durability and wear resistance. The hard-anodized finish significantly extends service life and provides longevity that rivals many steel sprockets while maintaining the weight advantages of aluminum.

Compared to a similar steel sprocket, this sprocket weighs less than half as much, reducing both rotational and unsprung weight.

Because unsprung weight has a greater impact on handling and suspension performance than weight carried by the chassis, even small reductions can produce noticeable improvements in acceleration, responsiveness, and overall ride quality. For example, on an RD350 the stock steel sprocket weighs about 2lbs vs. the aluminum weighing in at just 12 ounces!

Features:

  • Converts stock RD 530 and R5 525 drive-trains to modern 520 chain compatibility
  • Precision-machined from high-quality aluminum
  • Manufactured in the USA
  • Durable black hard-anodized finish
  • Less than half the weight of a comparable steel sprocket
  • Available in tooth counts from 37T to 50T
  • Custom tooth counts available upon request

Availability: Common tooth counts are normally stocked for immediate shipment. Less common and custom sizes are made to order; please allow 2-4 weeks for delivery.
