DescriptionThe whole story▼

When lap times are measured in tenths, chain tension cannot be left to guesswork. The LighTech TEKA002 chain tensioner brings race-grade precision to the Kawasaki ZX-10 R and ZX-10 RR, combining CNC-machined Ergal 7075 construction with a laser-engraved alignment scale that lets you dial in perfect tension at the track in seconds.

Key Features

  • CNC-machined from solid Ergal 7075 billet — exceptional strength-to-weight ratio proven in competition
  • External fine-adjustment screw for fast, exact chain tension corrections without removing the wheel
  • Laser-engraved scale on both sides ensures symmetrical alignment at a glance, eliminating measurement error
  • Engineered specifically for the Kawasaki ZX-10 R and ZX-10 RR across the full 2016–2026 production run
  • Available with or without titanium axle nut D024 to suit your existing setup
  • Compatible with the optional fork kit FTEKA007 for a complete rear-end upgrade

Track Performance Without Compromise

Ergal 7075 is the same high-tensile aluminium alloy used in aerospace and motorsport components — significantly stronger than standard 6061 and considerably lighter than steel. LighTech machines the TEKA002 from solid billet rather than casting it, which means no voids, no inconsistencies, and tolerances tight enough to satisfy a World Superbike paddock. The external fine-adjustment screw is the detail that separates this tensioner from OEM solutions: a single tool, a fraction of a turn, and the chain is set precisely where you need it, both sides indexed identically against the engraved scale.

Installation Note

For the best fit and full access to the adjustment screw, LighTech recommends replacing the standard axle nut with a lower-profile alternative. The titanium axle nut D024 is the factory-endorsed choice and is available as a bundle with this tensioner. The complementary fork kit FTEKA007 is also available separately as an accessory.
