Using your AS3 Performance Factory Series rear sprocket is straightforward. First, make sure your KTM bike is turned off and on a stable surface. Remove the old sprocket carefully using the appropriate tools. Then, install the new 49T orange sprocket in its place, ensuring it's properly aligned. Tighten the bolts to the recommended torque to prevent any issues during riding.
When it comes to maintenance, it's a good idea to regularly clean the sprocket. Use a mild soap and water solution to get rid of dirt and grime. After cleaning, dry it thoroughly to avoid rust. Check the sprocket for any signs of wear or damage, like bent teeth or excessive wear on the outer or inner rings, every few rides. If you notice any problems, it might be time to replace the sprocket.
Remember, this sprocket is designed for specific KTM models, so don't try to fit it on other bikes. Also, if you're not confident in installing or maintaining the sprocket yourself, it's best to take it to a professional mechanic. With proper use and maintenance, your sprocket will give you great performance for a long time, thanks to its high - quality steel and aluminium construction and the 12 - month warranty from the UK company.
