      Original Factory Supplied OEM 15/41t  size sprockets are the calculated "Happy Medium" of off the line acceleration, roll on's, and normal high speed engine rpm's with the least amount of compromise on either top end or low end acceleration
       **OEM Stock ratio 15/41t is the DEFAULT for this listing.**


For FREEWAY GEARING 16/41t  gear ratio (Faster top speed, lower freeway rpm's, better hwy. gas mileage)  Request a 16t front sprocket  Freeway Ratio in the "Add Message" tab during check out
(the +1t front sprocket change is versatile because you can change back to the stock ratio with 15t and same chain length) Your low end throttle will be reduced, but your top gear cruising rpm's will be lower, and top speed higher.


For  QUICK ACCELERATION 14/41t  , (Quicker off the line, Quicker throttle response, Easier Wheelies)   Request a QA 14t front sprocket during check out in the "Add Message" tab 
(the -1t front sprocket change is versatile because you can change back to the stock ratio with 15t and same chain length) 
 Your top end speed will be reduced, and your top gear cruising rpm's will be higher, and top speed slightly lower.

**   A +1t front sprocket change is EXACTLY the same ratio change as -3t rear sprocket Fwy. change. (+1 Ft = -3 Rr)

    Half the Power Loss (Compared with Normal O-Ring)  X-Ring construction reduces friction by twisting between the side plates instead of being squashed.

    Normal O-Rings and other makers’ modified O-Rings have squashed points that increase friction. The twisting action of the X-Ring disperses the pressure and minimizes power loss.   

    1.5 to 2 TImes Longer Wear Resistance (Compared with Normal O-Ring) The X-Ring’s four contact points greatly increase its sealing performance. This keeps the dirt out and the

     lubrication in much better than any other O-Ring.   X-Rings have the greatest wear resistance of any other type of O-Ring or Non-O-Ring chain .

     

    Why JT?

    JT Sprockets is the world's leading manufacturer of aftermarket sprockets and chain, constantly raising the industry's standards for quality and service.

     We are committed to supplying the most durable, best quality drive components available in the marketplace worldwide. This is why we produce and sell

     more sprockets than all the other aftermarket brands combined.

    Raw Materials

    JT sprockets are made using only the best available materials. Aviation-grade 7075-T6 aluminium alloy for lightweight competition sprockets,

    SCM415 chromoly steel alloy for front sprockets, and we are the only sprocket manufacturer using the ultra-durable high carbon C49 steel for rear sprockets.

    Production

    The JT Sprockets factory is the largest and most advanced in the world. It is fully equipped with high accuracy machinery, including the latest generation

     of CNC computer design and computer controlled metal cutting equipment.

    The essence of a high quality sprocket is in the high precision of manufacturing and the inherent quality of the material. Through accurate machining,

    JT ensures maximum durability and performance.

    JT Sprockets are manufactured the right way – by hobbing, machining and drilling. This is the only proven way to achieve the closest of tolerances

     and the most accurate teeth profiles.

    Heat treated and hand finished to perfection, all JT sprockets meet or exceed the highest possible quality standards set for the motorcycle industry.

    Quality Control

    Every sprocket goes through up to 25 production stages and 10 individual quality control checks before it is ready to leave the factory and

     the production facility has achieved the highest European quality standards
