FAQs

What material is the Apico Rear Sprocket made from?

The sprocket is manufactured from aerospace-grade C45 Medium Carbon Steel, known for its durability and strength.

What does 'Cad Designed & CNC Machined' mean for performance?

This means the sprocket is designed using advanced computer-aided design and then precisely cut using computer-controlled machinery, ensuring high accuracy, enhanced tolerances, and an optimal profile for reduced weight and increased strength.

How do the 'clearing grooves' help?

The grooves on the outer edges of the sprocket are designed to help remove mud, dirt, and debris that can accumulate during off-road riding. This helps to reduce wear on both the sprocket and the chain, and prevents excessive stress buildup.

Is this sprocket a direct replacement for the original part?

Yes, Apico parts are designed to be an exact replacement for OEM parts, simplifying installation.

What is the 'Cataphoresis Electro Coating'?

This is a finishing process that provides superior anti-corrosive properties and a distinctive, durable black finish, giving the sprocket a unique look and enhancing its resistance to the elements.

Which motorcycle models is this 47T sprocket compatible with?

This specific sprocket is compatible with Suzuki RM125 (1992-2008), RM250 (1992-2008), RMZ250 (2007-2023), and RMZ450 (2005-2023).

Does the sprocket come with mounting hardware?

Mounting hardware is typically not included with the sprocket itself and may need to be sourced separately, depending on your motorcycle's original setup.

Troubleshooting

Sprocket does not fit correctly.

Double-check the motorcycle's model and year against the product's compatibility list. Ensure no foreign objects or debris are obstructing the mounting surface.

Excessive chain noise or vibration.

Verify that the chain is properly aligned and tensioned according to your motorcycle's service manual. Check for any damaged chain rollers or links. Ensure the sprocket is securely mounted.

Premature wear on sprocket or chain.

Ensure regular cleaning and lubrication of the chain and sprocket. Check for proper chain alignment and avoid riding with excessive mud or dirt buildup. Inspect for any damage to the chain or sprockets.
