Description
Gearing a bike taller is a cheap way to reduce engine strain at sustained speed, and ProTaper’s 15-tooth Race Spec front sprocket for Honda off-road bikes is built to handle that role without giving up the durability riders expect from chromoly steel construction. Case-hardened and core-refined for strength through the whole part, this sprocket goes through the same CNC machining and internal broaching process as the rest of ProTaper’s RS lineup so the countershaft fit stays precise.
Key specs:
- Case-hardened, core-refined chromoly steel for lasting strength
- CNC machined and internally broached for a tight, accurate fit
- Computer-designed tooth profile to reduce chain drag and wasted power
- Proprietary coating adds resistance to wear and corrosion
- 15-tooth front gearing suited to faster trail riding and open terrain
Double check this part number against your specific Honda model before ordering since front sprocket fitment differs across the lineup even at matching tooth counts. This gearing choice trades a bit of acceleration out of tight corners for reduced engine revs and less strain at higher speeds, which a lot of trail and desert riders consider a fair tradeoff. IPD Racing keeps this sprocket in stock alongside the rest of ProTaper’s Honda RS range for fast shipping.
