At DMG Motorsports, we present the Vortex F5 Rear Sprocket in 43-tooth, 530-pitch configuration (427K-43) — a lightweight, race-proven aluminum sprocket engineered as a direct performance upgrade over the heavier stock steel unit on your Kawasaki Ninja ZX-14/ZX-14R. Vortex builds every F5 sprocket from a specially formulated 7075 aluminum alloy, then finishes it with a hard black anodized coating and a PTFE overlay for a component that looks as good as it performs. Whether you're chasing quicker acceleration on the street or shaving rotating mass for the track, this sprocket delivers Vortex's signature blend of strength, low weight, and long service life, all backed by a patented tooth design that's earned Vortex the trust of champions.

Features:

• CNC machined from 7075 aluminum for outstanding strength paired with significantly reduced weight versus steel
• 100 percent CNC manufactured in the USA to Vortex's specially formulated alloy specifications
• Hard anodized finish with a jet black dye for a durable, aggressive look
• PTFE black hardcoat applied over the anodizing for added lubricity, increased wear resistance, and long-term durability
• Unique, patented Vortex tooth design that increases sprocket longevity and reduces drivetrain wear
• 43-tooth, 530-pitch sizing designed to fit Kawasaki ZX1400 Ninja ZX-14 (2006-2011) and ZX-14R models including ABS, 30th Anniversary, and SE variants (2012-2020)
• Trusted by champions — a proven choice among racers and performance riders seeking a lighter, longer-lasting rear sprocket
