When compared to the larger sprocket sizes, the 11-tooth sprocket is very thin and fragile, making its life span much shorter. High BHP and high torque applications may make the life span unacceptably short. Due to the fragility of the part it should be treated with more care than the larger sized sprockets. We suggest that you polish the surface of the drive hub�s bearing sleeve with 600 grit wet/dry sandpaper to as smooth a surface as possible. Also sparingly apply a light coating of heavy weight wheel bearing grease to the inside of the sprocket. Then take it apart and clean and re-grease it after each run. The 11 tooth sprocket uses a different outer snap ring (098-003) and washer(098-026) which is exclusive to the 11 tooth. These parts are included with the purchase of the 11 tooth sprocket. |
