Vortex sprockets are precision machined, available in multiple pitches, and designed to be paired with the correct chain to optimise gear ratios and drivetrain performance. Many Vortex rear sprockets are lightweight CNC-machined alloy with durable finishes and proven performance on performance bikes and sport machines.

Vortex Motorcycle Sprockets
High-quality CNC machined sprockets designed to work perfectly with matched Vortex chains for performance, cruising, track, or off-road setups. Sprocket teeth count and pitch directly influence your bike’s acceleration characteristics and top speed.
Available for popular chain pitches such as 520 and 530, and designed to match OEM or performance gearing setups.

• Changing sprocket sizes affects final drive ratio (rear ÷ front teeth = ratio).
• Higher ratio (more rear teeth / fewer front teeth) improves acceleration but lowers top speed.
• Lower ratio (more front teeth / fewer rear teeth) increases top speed but reduces low-end torque.
• When changing sprockets significantly, you may need a different chain length — always check with a calculator before cutting chain.
