My friend dwj-Donnie is about to become a twtex.com member so I'm posting his request for help in the McAllen area for him. Here it is (from ADV):
"I arrived to Reynosa this afternoon. My rear "SuperSprox" is down to nubs! I seriously doubt that it will make it to Dallas! I have a sprocket and chain set at my daughter's house. Anyone from the Dallas area headed to McAllen/Renosa in the next day or so? Or Anybody headed this way or lives close by with a worn out sprocket for a 990 Adventure that will get me to Dallas?
In case you are wondering why I am in this predicament. The OEM chain and sprocket went 25,900 miles. The "high" quality replacement, which included JT sprockets went 19,150. The same chain, rear SuperSprox and JT front sprocket has barley over 18,250 and is toast! I was in Dallas six weeks or so ago and could have got the chain/sprocket set, but saw no need since i would be back well before I needed to replace the set. Little did I know! I paid an extra $40 or so for the rear SuperSprox and it is down to nubs! The front sprocket looks fine! I am surprised and not very happy with this situation. But it will all work out.
Hopefully someone can help!"
"I sent an email to the San Antonio Dealership last night. I have also applied for membership to TWT and am waiting on the Acceptance. Do you know any 990 Adventure owners in your area and further south that might have a new or used sprocket they would be willing to part with?"
He should be on our site later today with his own account but he will be able to read this as a guest right away.
Let's see how this works out!
