The Honda 23451-733-000 Change Gear (18T/23T) is a genuine OEM replacement designed for F401, F501, and FG500 tillers. Sourced directly from Honda, this component meets the exact specifications of the original part it replaces. This gear is built for the F401, F501, and FG500 tiller transmission, and buyers should verify their unit's serial number against the fitment table to confirm the correct application before ordering.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Gear Tooth Profile — Honda-sourced with the correct 18T/23T tooth count, ensuring proper mesh and load transfer within the tiller's transmission.
- Direct OEM Replacement — matches the original part number 23451-733-000 for a drop-in fit with no improvisation at installation.
- Fits F401, F501, and FG500 Tillers — confirm your tiller's serial number against the fitment table, as Honda supersedes gearbox components at serial breaks.
- Transmission Integrity — a worn or chipped change gear causes gear slippage, rough engagement, or loss of drive ratio, reducing tilling performance and placing added stress on surrounding drivetrain components.
The Change Gear (18T/23T) is a core component of the tiller's transmission, responsible for transferring and multiplying torque from the engine to the tine shaft at the correct drive ratio. The dual tooth count — 18T on one face, 23T on the other — allows the tiller to shift between working speeds to suit different soil conditions and tilling depths. When this gear wears, chips, or fractures, the transmission loses the ability to hold the selected ratio cleanly, resulting in slipping, rough engagement, or a complete loss of drive to the tines.
