I have looked everywhere I can think of and cannot seem to locate anywhere where I can purchase the front and rear sprockets for my 3rd Gen Magna. Can anyone out there in Magna land help me? Am I going to have to get these from a dealer?
This is all that's holding me back on doing the things I need to do some pre fall maintenance for riding.
Felicia, here is a thread from a while back on chain & sprockets. http://www.magnaownersoftexas.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=618&highlight=chain
I bought OEM sprockets in 2005 with a new RK chain, x-ring. I used a master link, and have lost 2 clips already! I had a DID B4, with master links - no prob!
The OEM stuff is not that much more, and I got 25K miles on the first set, so I'm not complaining. I like the security of knowing the sprockets are OEM; my life is worth the extra $ any day! (No, I'm not rich either!) lol
I would always use a rivet link alot safer for sure and if you are around houston well my house I have the tools to do it and hey IT,S FREE to use it !!!!
I absolutely insist on a rivet type chain for me and my bike....
I bought front/rear sprockets and my chain from Bates.

I have bought mine on line and from the local stealer. When you do change it out with the OEM be sure to keep the rubber ring that is around your original back sprocket and replace it on the new sprocket if has the rim for it. They do not come with the OEM sprocket.
