Chains and sprockets...
I was just cleaning things up (once a year whether it needs it or not) and looking at my chain and sprockets. Everything looks fine to my untrained eye but that means nothing. I have right around 32k miles on her. The teeth on the sprockets aren't hooked or overly sharp. The chain adjustment seems to have more room to grow.
So, how do I know when it's time for some new parts and when that time comes, where do I find parts? I have been googling parts and as far as I can find no one has OEM sprockets in stock. Lots of after market stuff to choose from but I would rather have the real thing.
Thanks in advance!
