Key Features & Benefits

• V4 Platform Engineering: The V4 line represents Vortex Racing's latest evolution in sprocket design, building on extensive motorsport experience to deliver refined performance over previous generations.
• 43-Tooth Gearing: A 43-tooth rear sprocket provides a meaningful gear ratio tuning option — typically favored for improved acceleration and low-to-mid range pull compared to smaller tooth counts on the same bike.
• 530 Chain Pitch Compatibility: Engineered specifically for 530-pitch chain setups, which are common on mid-to-large displacement sport and naked motorcycles. Ensures proper chain engagement and longevity when paired with a matching 530 front sprocket and chain.
• Blacked-Out Finish: The black finish gives this sprocket a clean, aggressive look that complements most motorcycle aesthetics — track builds, street fighters, and sport bikes alike.
• Vortex Racing Brand Heritage: Vortex has long been a trusted name in club racing, track day, and road race circles, supplying drivetrain components to serious riders who can't afford drivetrain failures mid-session.
• Regularly Stocked Product: Listed as a regularly stocked item at ThreePiece.us, meaning this isn't a one-off special order — it's a part Vortex continues to manufacture and supply.

Fitment

This sprocket uses the MPN 826ZKV4-43, which corresponds to a specific bolt pattern / carrier interface within Vortex Racing's fitment system. The "826" prefix in Vortex's part numbering convention identifies the sprocket's carrier/interface configuration, while "43" indicates the tooth count and "530" identifies the chain pitch. To confirm that this exact part number fits your specific motorcycle — including the correct bolt pattern, carrier hole spacing, and center bore — we strongly recommend verifying fitment against your motorcycle's year, make, model, and current sprocket specification before ordering. Our team at ThreePiece.us can help confirm compatibility; contact us at 813-535-5801 or via email before purchasing if you have any doubt. Do not assume fitment based on tooth count or chain pitch alone — the carrier bolt pattern must also match.

What's in the Box

This listing covers the rear sprocket only (1x Vortex Racing V4 43T 530 Rear Sprocket in Black). A chain, front sprocket, or sprocket carrier are not included unless explicitly purchased together. If you're doing a full drivetrain refresh, be sure to add a matching 530-pitch chain and front sprocket to your order — our team can assist with recommendations.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What chain pitch does this sprocket use?

A: This sprocket is designed for 530-pitch chain. Make sure your front sprocket and chain are also 530-pitch for proper compatibility. Mixing chain pitches will result in poor engagement and accelerated wear.

Q: Will this sprocket fit my specific motorcycle?

A: Fitment depends on more than just tooth count and chain pitch — the carrier bolt pattern (identified by the "826" prefix in the MPN) must match your wheel's sprocket carrier. We strongly recommend contacting our team before ordering to confirm fitment for your year/make/model. Reach us at 813-535-5801 or sales@threepiece.us.

Q: Is this a steel or aluminum sprocket?

A: The product name includes the "V4" designation, which Vortex Racing describes as part of their aluminum sprocket platform evolution. However, because we want to be precise about this specific part number (826ZKV4-43), we recommend confirming material with our team or with Vortex Racing directly if material type is a deciding factor for your application (e.g., track use vs. street longevity).

Q: Can I finance this purchase?

A: Yes — Affirm financing is available at checkout on ThreePiece.us, allowing you to split the cost into manageable payments. Simply select Affirm during checkout to see your options.
