Description
Quads and ATVs put front sprockets through a different kind of abuse than dirt bikes do, with more sustained load and more exposure to mud and sand getting packed into the drivetrain. ProTaper built this 15-tooth front sprocket for the YFZ450 and Raptor 700 with that in mind, using precision broaching and machining alongside self-cleaning mud grooves designed to keep dirt from wedging in between the teeth and throwing the chain off line.
Construction highlights:
- Precision-broached and machined to strict tolerances for a clean fit
- Case-hardened chromoly steel for strength under sustained ATV riding loads
- Lightening holes reduce rotating mass without sacrificing tooth strength
- Self-cleaning mud grooves prevent dirt buildup that can cause chain skip
- Special coating helps retain strength and resist wear over time
This sprocket is built for the YFZ450 and Raptor 700 platforms specifically, so confirm your quad falls into one of those two model lines before ordering since ATV sprocket bolt patterns are not interchangeable across brands. Riders who spend time in wet, muddy terrain will get the most benefit from the mud groove design, since a packed sprocket under sustained ATV torque is a common cause of premature chain wear. IPD Racing keeps this sprocket in stock for YFZ450 and Raptor 700 owners who need a durable replacement without the wait.
