At DMG Motorsports, we present the Vortex CAT5 Rear Sprocket in Red — a 44-tooth, 520-pitch aluminum sprocket built for riders who want race-proven performance and eye-catching style in one component. This sprocket fits a wide range of Kawasaki, Suzuki, and Yamaha models running 520 chain conversions, giving you a lightweight upgrade over bulky OEM steel sprockets. Vortex has long been a trusted name on the track, and this CAT5 sprocket carries that racing pedigree straight to your bike.
Every CAT5 sprocket in this line is anodized in color first, then CNC machined from 7075 aluminum, which is what gives the sprocket its signature look — vivid red finish contrasted by bright silver highlights wherever the material is precision-cut. Beyond the aesthetics, the reduced rotating mass of an aluminum sprocket means quicker acceleration and sharper handling compared to a stock steel unit, while the patented Vortex tooth geometry is engineered to hold up to the demands of hard track and street riding.
