CNC-machined from a specialized nickel-chrome-molybdenum alloy steel, the sprocket undergoes a rigorous case-hardening and core-refinement process. This treatment creates an incredibly hard, wear-resistant outer surface for the chain rollers to ride on, while maintaining a tough inner core capable of withstanding the severe shock loads of aggressive acceleration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnlike traditional stamped OEM sprockets, Renthal utilizes computer-engineered profiling to ensure perfect concentricity, exact fitment on the countershaft splines, and precise chain alignment. This specific model features an ultralight design with strategic lightening holes to reduce rotational unsprung mass without compromising the structural integrity required for high-torque motorcycles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePremium Alloy Steel:\u003c\/b\u003e CNC-machined from nickel-chrome-molybdenum steel for maximum tensile strength and durability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCase-Hardened:\u003c\/b\u003e Specialized heat treatment creates a highly wear-resistant surface that significantly extends drivetrain life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePrecision Profile:\u003c\/b\u003e Computer-engineered tooth profiling ensures perfect concentricity and flawless mating with a 525-pitch chain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLightweight Design:\u003c\/b\u003e Strategic lightening holes reduce rotational mass for improved throttle response and acceleration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDirect Replacement:\u003c\/b\u003e Precision-cut splines ensure a tight, slop-free fit on the factory countershaft.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eFitment: \u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e2020–2024 – Yamaha Tenere 700\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e2014–2024 – Yamaha MT-07\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e2014–2025 – Yamaha MT-09\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e2015–2025 – Yamaha R1\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eFitment Note:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2025+ Yamaha Tenere 700 changed to a 520 pitch drive train. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cb\u003eReplace the Lock Washer:\u003c\/b\u003e When installing a new front countershaft sprocket, you must flatten the bent tabs of your factory lock washer. Metal fatigue occurs once these tabs are bent back and forth. It is highly recommended to purchase a brand-new OEM lock washer from your dealer rather than reusing the old one to ensure the countershaft nut cannot back off while riding.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cb\u003eDrivetrain Wear:\u003c\/b\u003e You should always replace your drivetrain components as a complete set (front sprocket, rear sprocket, and drive chain). Installing a brand-new front sprocket onto an old, stretched chain will cause the new sprocket's teeth to \"hook\" and wear out at a drastically accelerated rate, wasting your investment.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.tmbrmoto.com\/collections\/renthal\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0622\/5720\/1317\/files\/RENTHAL_BANNERS.jpg?v=1779218010\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0622\/5720\/1317\/files\/MADE_IN_UK.jpg?v=1744046246\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePart Number: 309--525-16P\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Renthal","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48061096198309,"sku":"RENT-CS-SPKT-16T-Y7","price":47.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.tmbrmoto.com\/products\/renthal-front-countershaft-sprocket-525-16t-309-525-16p","provider":"TMBR MOTO","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
