2009-2015 Suzuki SFV650 Gladius OEM size is 520x112 x-ring chain, 15t Ft. Sprocket, 46t Rear Sprocket
QUICK ACCELERATION gear ratio (quicker off the line, quicker roll on's, easier wheelies),
This 14t (-1t) front sprocket with a 46t (oem) rear sprocket QA kit is the DEFAULT for this listing.
The -1t front sprocket change is versatile because you can change back to the stock ratio size 520x15t with same length chain.
*Your top gear cruising rpm's will be higher, and your top speed will be lower with this quick acceleration kit.
EXTREME QUICK ACCELERATION gear ratio (way quicker off the line, way quicker roll on's, VERY easy wheelies),
Request this 14t (-1t) front sprocket with 49t (+3t) rear sprocket Extreme QA kit during check out in the "Add Message" tab.
The -1t front sprocket change is versatile because you can change back to the regular quick accel ratio with going back to a stock 520x15t Front sprocket with same length chain.
*Your top gear cruising rpm's will be much higher, and your top speed will be much lower with this Extreme Quick Acceleration kit.
Original Factory Supplied OEM size sprockets are the calculated "Happy Medium" of off the line acceleration, roll on's,
and reasonable high speed engine rpm's with the least amount of compromise on either top end or low end acceleration.
520 size conversion (approx. 4mm narrower than stock 530, much lighter weight chain and sprockets) does NOT affect final drive ratio,
only changing number of teeth on sprockets actually changes gear ratio.
If you just want a lighter easier spinning final drive components kit (lighter reciprocating mass), and are using your entire gear box as it is from Suzuki,
then REQUEST Near OEM 15/46t sprocket sizes in the "MESSAGE TO SELLER" tab during step 2 of checkout.
Note; Exact oem 39t is not available in JT Japan steel 520 conversion.
Available Optional JT Japan Steel Sprocket Sizes;
JT 520 Japan Steel Ft. Sprocket is available in 520 x 14 ,15 or 16 teeth
JT 520 Black Steel Rr. Sprocket is available in 520 x 39, 41, 45 , 46 or 49 teeth
Teeth and Sizes Explained...
** A -1t front sprocket change is EXACTLY the same ratio change as +3t rear sprocket change. (-1 Ft. = +3 Rr)
** A +1t front sprocket change is EXACTLY the same ratio change as -3t rear sprocket change. (+1 Ft = -3 Rr)
** A -1t front and +2t rear combination is EXACTLY the same as a +5t rear only change with stock front sprocket.
** A 520 size chain is approx. 2mm narrower than a 525 chain, and 4mm narrower than a 530 chain.
Less mass equals lighter weight equals easier to spin, but the ratio (teeth size) change makes the big difference.
The sprocket width matches the chain width where it rides on the sprockets, thus a 520 chain must use 520 sprockets,
and a 525 chain must use 525 sprockets, etc...
** RPE Motorcycle has chain and sprocket conversion kits available in 520 , 525 , and 530 sizes for most motorcycles.
** A larger rear sprocket number of teeth size requires a longer chain, however +1 or -1 tooth on the front sprocket only
will use the same chain length.
** If you gear your motorcycle for Quicker Acceleration, it will be Slower on the top end of your power band.
If you gear your motorcycle for Top End (Faster Top Speed, lower top gear cruising rpm's) it will be slower
off the line and less responsive in lower rpm's.

JT Sprockets and JT Chain, the leading edge technology in production and materials with total dedication to excellence
gives you the ultimate motorcycle sprocket and chain range at unbeatable value. Our mission is to supply you the most

our Commitment with JT Sprockets and JT Chain - World's No. 1 manufacturer of aftermarket motorcycle chain and sprockets,
constantly raising the industry's standards in performance, longevity and reliability.
Half the Power Loss (Compared with Normal O-Ring) X-Ring construction reduces friction by twisting between the side plates instead of being squashed.
Normal O-Rings and other makers’ modified O-Rings have squashed points that increase friction. The twisting action of the X-Ring disperses the pressure and minimizes power loss.
1.5 to 2 TImes Longer Wear Resistance (Compared with Normal O-Ring) The X-Ring’s four contact points greatly increase its sealing performance. This keeps the dirt out and the lubrication in much better than any other O-Ring. X-Rings have the greatest wear resistance of any other type of O-Ring or Non-O-Ring chain .
Why JT?:
JT Sprockets is the world's leading manufacturer of aftermarket sprockets and chain, constantly raising the industry's standards for quality and service.
We are committed to supplying the most durable, best quality drive components available in the marketplace worldwide. This is why we produce and sell
more sprockets than all the other aftermarket brands combined.
Raw Materials:
JT sprockets are made using only the best available materials. Aviation-grade 7075-T6 aluminium alloy for lightweight competition sprockets,
SCM415 chromoly steel alloy for front sprockets, and we are the only sprocket manufacturer using the ultra-durable high carbon C49 steel for rear sprockets.
Production:
The JT Sprockets factory is the largest and most advanced in the world. It is fully equipped with high accuracy machinery, including the latest generation
of CNC computer design and computer controlled metal cutting equipment.
The essence of a high quality sprocket is in the high precision of manufacturing and the inherent quality of the material. Through accurate machining,
JT ensures maximum durability and performance.
JT Sprockets are manufactured the right way – by hobbing, machining and drilling. This is the only proven way to achieve the closest of tolerances
and the most accurate teeth profiles.
Heat treated and hand finished to perfection, all JT sprockets meet or exceed the highest possible quality standards set for the motorcycle industry.
Quality Control:
Every sprocket goes through up to 25 production stages and 10 individual quality control checks before it is ready to leave the factory and
the production facility has achieved the highest European quality standards
