At DMG Motorsports, we present the Vortex CAT5 Rear Sprocket in Aluminum, 45-Tooth, 520 Pitch, Black finish for Kawasaki (452AZK-45) — a lightweight, race-ready upgrade built to replace your bulky OEM steel sprocket with a component that looks as fast as it performs. Vortex anodizes the sprocket first and then CNC machines it, so the finished piece reveals a striking black finish contrasted by bright silver highlights along the machined surfaces, giving your Kawasaki a sharp, aggressive look while shedding unnecessary rotating weight.

Built from 7075 aluminum and manufactured entirely in the USA to Vortex's own specially formulated alloy specifications, this CAT5 sprocket is engineered for durability and consistent power transfer, whether you're logging track laps or putting in serious street miles. Its patented tooth design isn't just for looks — it's shaped to increase sprocket longevity and stand apart from ordinary replacement sprockets. Trusted by champions and proven on the track, this Vortex CAT5 sprocket is a smart choice for riders who want performance and style in one part.
