The lightweight aluminum construction reduces the effort required to accelerate the rear wheel, while the carefully machined tooth profile and concentric design help maintain consistent chain engagement. This makes the sprocket a practical choice for performance-focused street motorcycles, track machines, and other compatible powersports applications.\u003cbr\u003eBefore installation, verify that the 44-tooth V4 sprocket and 530 chain specification match your motorcycle’s fitment requirements, gearing goals, and drivetrain components. Replacing a rear sprocket may affect final-drive gearing, acceleration, cruising speed, and chain length requirements. Follow the motorcycle manufacturer’s service procedures and use the recommended torque specifications when installing the Vortex Racing vtx427ZKV4-44.\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003ePrecision-machined from high-strength 7075-T6 aluminum\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e10–15% lighter than the Vortex CAT5 sprocket platform\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eExcellent concentricity for smooth, quiet operation\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eSupports efficient drivetrain power transfer\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e44-tooth rear sprocket for compatible 530 chain systems\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eBlack finish\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eMade in the USA\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Vortex Racing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67598543749436,"sku":"vtx427ZKV4-44","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1865\/9007\/files\/7d08cc7e82f75e98c8dd04025f3b4eceL_d9e0fe56-bfd8-4235-ab10-500f9399773a.jpg?v=1790651270","url":"https:\/\/necycleshop.com\/products\/vortex-racing-v4-44-tooth-530-rear-sprocket-black-4","provider":"NE Cycle Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
