Sprocket Replace

After reading the sprocket inspection thread. I removed the cover covering the Sprocket and witnessed the dreaded Red dust. I have 27365 miles.
I took my F3 in today to my dealer Sierra Cycles in Sierra Vista AZ this should be your dealer if you live in Arizona.
Tech took the sprocket off to inspect and said not that much wear but wanted to order a new sprocket not only because of the Red dust but he could move it which he said you shouldn't be able to do! Service manger says I'll put in claim with BRP and order sprocket to which I said no need opened up side case and got my new sprocket and Bolt out and said would this Help. Service manger and Tech both said yes so I have a new Sprocket and Bolt. Service manger took a bunch of pictures and is going to submit to BRP. I left a Happy camper :yes:
The cost was a little Steep though!! $0.00

Great Dealer great service!

You best hang on to that shop...:thumbup: but it is the best way to go to a shop...have the parts or know they have them....:lecturef_smilie:

Where is that red dust color came from?

If my dealer replaced the sprocket at my last oil change when I told him of the red rust I would be a happy camper..but he did not.
This is the first strike against both my dealer and BRP. 2 more strikes and I'm back to Honda.
