Description
Chasing a quicker launch or a taller top end on a dirt bike usually starts at the front sprocket, and this Renthal 520 pitch tooth count gives racers a proven place to start.
What makes this sprocket worth the upgrade:
- 14-tooth count matched to the fitment listed for this specific application.
- Grooves reduce the surface area holding onto debris, which keeps chain engagement consistent in wet or muddy conditions.
- Precision concentricity keeps chain tension even through a full revolution, which cuts down on chain slap and premature wear.
- Hard-anodized or heat-treated tooth faces (per the exact part spec) resist rounding under repeated hard launches.
- Matches OEM bolt pattern and offset for a bolt-on swap with no countershaft modification.
- Designed and tested by a company that has supplied factory motocross and supercross teams for decades.
- 520 pitch chain compatible, machined for a precise drop-in fit on the 06-08/ 13-23 Kawasaki KLX 450F/R/ KX450/F/X/XC application.
Part number 452–520-14GP. This is a genuine Renthal component sold through IPD Racing, priced at $39.95. Installation is straightforward with basic hand tools and a torque wrench, though anyone unsure about their exact tooth count or pitch should verify against the fitment listed here or contact IPD Racing before buying.
