The RK 520 Aluminum Race Chain and Sprocket Kit is designed for the Kawasaki ZX-6R rider seeking responsive race gearing and reduced rotating mass. This kit features RK’s premium lightweight XW-ring sealed racing chain with a durable gold finish, providing reliable performance for demanding riding conditions. The included rear sprocket is manufactured by Driven® from lightweight 7075 T6511 aluminum and finished with black hard anodizing for enhanced durability.
