• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

    2009 Front Sprocket - WHAT shape are the teeth on the shaft?

    Well guys ... shop called and everything is working great. They are going over the parts list. There were parts that were ordered separately, but came on the shaft. And seals that came in the gasket set and ordered just in case. Will get the updated total tomorrow .

    2009 Front Sprocket - WHAT shape are the teeth on the shaft?

    Yes ... I will have it stripped down and done right. Parts that need to be replaced, have been ordered. (those we know of) I really do enjoy this ride, got my bike license before my car license. That was 47 years ago, and have never driven anything like it. I just hope it all works out as...

    2009 Front Sprocket - WHAT shape are the teeth on the shaft?

    Freddy, I see you put 115ftlbs on the NEW bolt and washer. What are you putting for tension on YOUR belt? I had a machinist come over last night and after a long discussion, he talked me into doing it the RIGHT way. It will be going in the shop on Tuesday. I want to get all the facts so this...

    2009 Front Sprocket - WHAT shape are the teeth on the shaft?

    Freddy ... the big pulley you're talking about, is that the one on the rear wheel? And if so, is it the double row bearing that the pulley rides? If so, I will order it and the seal for it.

    2009 Front Sprocket - WHAT shape are the teeth on the shaft?

    Ok guys, my new sprocket was ordered today. If they put an order in today, I could see it Friday. If not ordered until tomorrow, I will see it Tuesday. I was told a bolt and washer comes with the new sprocket . " FINGERS CROSSED "

    2009 Front Sprocket - WHAT shape are the teeth on the shaft?

    If I bite the bullet and get it done right, I want to make sure it doesn't happen again. Bolt at 115ftlb's and need to find the tension for the belt. (New sprocket $200 tax inc.) As far as the 10 - 12 hours... that's what I was told.
