    Never heard of them. But thanks for the heads up. There are some posts on advrider forums with more negative feedback.

    Yeah they have a better business bureau rating of an F. Complete scam artists. Looks like they try to hide this by "under new management" etc every year or so....

    Its hard believe in this day an age that a company like that can exist. Hopefully the word gets out.

    Just stick with stock JT sprockets. Really no point trying to shave ounces here and there on a 500+lbs sport tourer. I've been ordering sprockets and xring chain from Amazon. Free fast shipping if you're a prime member usually.

    Well there is a point for spending money and shaving ounces, for me at least, especially if the sprockets are guaranteed for life and the chains supposedly last close to forever. I would spend the money if it was true, but its not.
