Replacement wheel gears for Kyosho motorcycle models

The SKM1000 package contains three steel wheel-side gears in 52T, 53T and 55T counts, intended as aftermarket replacements for Kyosho-style motorcycle hubs. These parts are supplied to match common wheel-side spur gear arrangements and are useful when you need a straightforward replacement or want to experiment with tooth count changes for handling and speed tuning.

Typical installation requires wheel hub removal, inspection or reuse of bearings and spacers, seating the selected gear on the hub with correct orientation, and checking mesh and backlash against the mating pinion or spur before final tightening. Steel gears need proper mesh and appropriate lubrication to reduce wear on adjacent components.

Swapping between the three tooth counts is a simple way to change gearing without replacing the motor pinion, letting you test different acceleration and top-speed tradeoffs on the same chassis. Verify physical fit and clearances on your specific Kyosho motorcycle before securing components for regular running.

Specifications

  • Item: Wheel gear assembly set, pcs 3
  • Material: Steel
  • Model Number: SKM1000
  • Compatibility: Kyosho motorcycle RC models (wheel-side gear application)

Use these steel gears where tooth counts match your wheel-side assembly and follow routine mesh and bearing checks to keep the drivetrain working smoothly.

The set supplies one gear each in 52T, 53T and 55T for wheel-side use.
Fit varies by hub design; check bore diameter, mounting face and bearing position. Trial-fit before permanent installation to confirm clearance and alignment.
Basic wheel removal tools, hex drivers, pliers for bearing removal if needed, and a feeler gauge or small screwdriver for mesh checks are useful.
Lower tooth counts generally favour acceleration, higher counts raise top speed but can increase motor load. Test and monitor temperature and current draw after changes.
Keep contact areas clean, apply a light gear-safe lubricant as needed, and inspect teeth periodically for nicks or deformation.
