Supersprox ' Performance ' chain and sprocket kits

Supersprox is adding to its Performance chain and sprocket kits with these new options for the Honda CBR 125 R B-D ( 2011-2016 ) an the KTM Duke 125 from 2011 and up . Already available from Supersprox distributors in France , Germany , Italy and Spain , the manufacturer is additionally looking for distributors who see the potential for the Supersprox range of 47 branded Performance kits in their own markets - additional applications are expected to be added in the summer 2024 . Supersprox CEO DJ Maughfling told IDN : " Our clients are demanding better solutions for the growing market of Chinese , Indian and exotic
' extend sprocket life by 40 %'
motorcycles . This range will be popular because Supersprox understands the market requirements and is able to offer high quality for these budget bikes . " After 60 years in the business of drive systems , we know what is important for the new generation of motorcycle users . We have taken away features that are specific to racing and added features that prolong the life of the drive system . For this range , we have focused on the hardening of the sprocket teeth ." The rear sprocket has added 45HRC surface hardness - which it is possible to see at the base of the tooth . This 1 mm deep
layer will extend sprocket life by 40 % compared to other sprockets that don ' t have induction hardening . " We understand that the sprockets will be used in all weathers and the bikes might be parked outside . Supersprox ' Performance ' sprockets are zincplated to eliminate possible rusting - because rust is very abrasive on the chain and reduces system life ." The drive sprockets are case-hardened and have a surface hardness to 55HRC . This is the same hardness as Supersprox racing sprockets and is a known standard that gives excellent performance and complements the hardness of the chain . The chains have solid bushes to reduce friction and keep all the parts running smoothly . For bikes with 520 / 525 chains , there is an affordable upgrade option with sealed links .
