Sitta Aluminium Rear Sprocket Ducati Panigale 1199/R/S (2012-2017) – 37-46 Teeth, 520/525 Pitch (206D)

Engineered for the uncompromising demands of track riding, the Sitta aluminium rear sprocket for the Ducati Panigale 1199/R/S cuts unsprung rotational mass without sacrificing the structural integrity a 1199 superbike requires. At just 625 g in the 45-tooth configuration, this is a precision drivetrain component that sharpens throttle response, improves acceleration feel and lets you dial in your exact gearing for every circuit.

Key Features

• Hard-anodised aluminium construction delivers a surface hardness that outlasts conventionally anodised sprockets, resisting wear and corrosion even under repeated track-day punishment.
• Available in ten tooth counts from 37 to 46, covering every gearing strategy from short-circuit acceleration to longer, faster circuits where top-speed ratios matter.
• Compatible with both 520 and 525 pitch chains, giving you the freedom to stay on your current chain standard or convert to the lighter 520 pitch for additional drivetrain weight savings.
• Weighs just 625 g at 45 teeth — a meaningful reduction in unsprung and rotating mass that sharpens the Panigale 1199's already razor-edged throttle response.
• 6-bolt 60/110 sprocket carrier pattern ensures a precise, rattle-free fit on the standard Ducati Panigale 1199 hub with no modification required.
• Part number 206D — a dedicated fitment for the Panigale 1199 family, not a universal compromise.

Track Performance & Build Quality

The Ducati Panigale 1199 is a machine built around peak performance, and its drivetrain deserves components held to the same standard. Sitta machines this rear sprocket from high-grade aluminium billet and subjects it to a hard-anodising process that creates a surface layer significantly harder and more abrasion-resistant than standard anodising. The result is a sprocket that maintains clean tooth geometry through extended track use, keeping chain engagement consistent and reducing the micro-vibrations that accompany a worn drivetrain.

The 6-bolt 60/110 carrier interface is the same pattern used by OEM Ducati components, so installation is straightforward and the sprocket seats exactly where it should — no shimming, no improvisation. Whether you are switching pitch from 525 to 520 for a weight-reduction build or simply replacing a worn sprocket with a correctly specced upgrade, the 206D slots in with the precision the Panigale platform demands.

Gearing Strategy for the Panigale 1199

Choosing between 37 and 46 teeth gives you a wide spread of final drive ratios. Dropping to a smaller rear sprocket raises top speed and suits longer tracks with extended straights; stepping up to a larger count sharpens acceleration out of tight chicanes and hairpins. Because the Sitta 206D is available in half-tooth increments across the full range in both 520 and 525 pitch, you can fine-tune your ratio without being forced to change front sprockets at the same time — a practical advantage when setting up on the grid.
