At DMG Motorsports, we present the Vortex CAT5 Rear Sprocket in 44-Tooth, 520 pitch, Black finish (part #452AZK-44) — a race-proven aluminum rear sprocket built for Kawasaki riders who want top-tier performance with unmistakable style. Vortex is a name trusted throughout the paddock, and this CAT5 sprocket delivers the same precision engineering found on championship-winning machines, giving your bike a lighter, stronger drivetrain component paired with a striking anodized look.

This sprocket is anodized in black FIRST, then CNC machined from 7075 aluminum, a process that leaves behind bright silver highlights against the black finish for a truly custom appearance that still means business on the track or street. The result is a sprocket that not only looks aggressive but is engineered for durability, precision, and consistent power transfer, backed by Vortex's reputation among racers and champions alike.
