6 is not good enough?

ztrack157 · May 24th, 2011, 12:15 PM

I've thought about ordering but I did the math and can't justify switching from my 428 setup.

Once you guys get 7 peeps let me know and I'll replace my order.

In that case, you should just ask Mark for a refund, and he will give you your money back ASAP. He is completely at the mercy of the machinist, who is at the mercy of the case hardener. This is all unobtanium for our bikes, so it is simply not possible to make it happen any quicker.

It took about 5 months to get the 2 prototype sets. So I admit that I was very patient. And I am certainly glad that I was. I love this set up, and no way in hell would I go back to the clunky 520!

4? Is that including yourself?

Last I heard they were machining the sprockets as we speak (or rather as I type this) for those who already paid.

Might want to check with Mark again and give us an update.

Hello 415 Chain and Sprocket Orders,

I want to thank you for your order of 415 chain and sprockets from Aftermarket Cycles. We have 5 sprocket sets in production right now. My goal was to get 10 sets pre-ordered because of the price breaks but I also didn't want to make the 4 who did pre-order wait forever. Included in your chain purchases is a 415 Tsubaki SHT Hi-Performance Racing Chain that will be a great chain for your needs.

The reason I am emailing you is to let you know we have sourced DID415ER Chains (well known in the racing world for quality) and you can upgrade the chain for $50.00 additional. We are not making a dime off these chains because they are hard to get and I am going to have the vendor ship them directly to you guys.

If you are interested in the upgrade I need to have a ALL IN commitment because the vendor doesn't want to ship one at a time.

Call me if you have any questions and I hope this doesn't come across as trying to up sell to make more money because the only reason I am doing this is to help out my racers.

Mark Yeoman | Aftermarket Cycles | Seattle WA
W: www.aftermarketcycles.com P: 586-524-7888

Just got this via email.

$50 more for an upgrade chain even if you've already ordered a chain with your sprockets.

IndyTwoFiddy · June 1st, 2011, 09:18 PM

What does this do? Is it something for casual riders? I commute to work and ride on the weekends...thanks

SPG · June 2nd, 2011, 02:15 PM

No not for the casual rider. It is a nice performance upgrade, at the cost of slightly more wear on the chain and sprocket. Not worth doing for a street bike which racks up the miles. For a race bike which usually gets a lot of maintenance per mile, it is more easily justified.

As the "other guy" who took the plunge with Tim to try the protptypes out, these chains and sprockets are the nuts. If your rear brakes are set up to not drag, you can put the bike on a stand and the rear wheel spins freely. The factory chain will stop the rear wheel almost immediately. It's actually a pretty cheap way to free up some horsepower in a tightly regulated class.

As some readers on the Kawi Forums missed, the sprockets are almost the same diameter as the factory ones. The reason for the higher tooth count is that the teeth are closer together.

sowega · June 11th, 2011, 07:32 PM

Has anyone else who paid via paypal seen a ship date or anything?

Rexbo · June 12th, 2011, 10:24 AM

I emailed mark on friday and he said that the sprockets are out for hardening/plating right now. Not sure how long that means but thats last I heard.

SPG · June 13th, 2011, 08:34 AM

For what it's worth guys, Mark is a stand up guy and wants to get these kits out the door as much as you do. Having dealt with the vendor who is making the sprockets before, I know that there is not a lot of control over the production speed. The only thing I know for sure is that; 1) You will get your parts, 2) You will get them faster that anyone else will make them for you, and 3) If something goes sideways with the production (unlikely), Mark will make it good for you.

Give it a chance. You'll be glad you waited.
-Sean

aftermarketcycles · June 20th, 2011, 02:14 PM

415GP Customers:

Currently the sprockets are still being hardened and I have called the manufacturer several times to keep on them. Part of the game with custom manufacturing is I am at the mercy of them and they are at the mercy of their vendors for hardening.

Today I placed another order for 5 additional sets due to more orders for this kit. 2 sets are spoken for and 3 will be available as today so if you are reading this and are interested please place the order at www.aftermarketcycles.com.

The chains are in the shop and awaiting sprockets to ship. I assure you that you will all get your sprockets and chain and if you have any questions about this kit please call me directly at 586-524-7888.

This sprocket setup is race proven by tim61 on here. He's won all (4) 250 races with WMRRA this year. I believe the sprocket ratio is close to what you'd get with the stock 520 setup.

If you're interested, buy in and once ~8 are ordered they'll make a single order: http://www.aftermarketcycles.com/str...ocket-set.html

EDIT: This setup requires the 415 chain, I highly suggest buying the 140 link chain! Otherwise you'll need to order 2 415 link chains from another site as they're only 120 links and rivet them together. It's cheaper/easier to purchase the 140 link chain.

ill order one but im in canada so i cant make the order myself can you ship it to me? maybe COD or paypal? email is assripp3r@hotmail.com

lol that was for paypal so you bill me now and i can buy when your ready

Order · July 21st, 2011, 11:33 PM

I spoke with Mark today and got the story behind what has been taking so long... Unfortunately the person who is doing the hardening isn't the same person who makes the sprockets and the order was screwed up after a long wait. They've dropped the business who was hardening them for one that has quick turn around. I've been told they should be complete in 7-10 days, this has been entirely out of Mark's hands and I ping him ~5 times a week to get an update. So I think he's tired of hearing from me, I doubt I'm the only person who's calling/texting about them.

Since I know Mark as he's local, I expect to get mine first and I'll post photos/details when I do. I'd expect everyone to have theirs shortly after unless local (Washington.)

aftermarketcycles · July 22nd, 2011, 10:53 AM

ORDER UPDATE:

We have the rear sprockets and chains at the shop and we are waiting on the counter shaft sprockets from the manufacturer who recently informed me that they made a huge mistake and built the wrong tooth front sprockets (that we have been waiting 6 weeks for hardening). I can not express the amount of frustration I have about this because all of you are waiting patiently and now we have to wait another 10-14 days for correct front sprockets to be hardened from a new source that the manufacturer is using. They made 10 front sprockets today and are sending to the hardener right away with a expected turn around of 10 days plus shipping time.

I am ashamed to even have the Aftermarket Cycles name on any of this because this is not how we do business. This has become a huge learning experience on getting custom parts made. I apologize for the wait and if anyone who placed an order wants a refund please call me directly at 586-524-7888 and we can take care if that right away no problem.

On a good note if this works and the new source for hardening can deliver we can get lots more of these made and quickly.

Any questions or concerns please call me directly!

Rexbo · July 25th, 2011, 07:58 PM

I'm starting to get really impatient now.

Rexbo · August 17th, 2011, 08:14 PM

I emailed him and heres what i got:

"Parts were going to ship Friday but supplier failed me again and his CNC Machine broke. I am mailing chains and front sprockets Wednesday so everyone has something and the rear I am going to ship asap. This guy is a complete idiot and I am taking the heat for it.

Mark "

Nemesis · August 17th, 2011, 08:16 PM

Mark just emailed me back right now and he said he's shipping it Friday. So, which is it?

aftermarketcycles · August 18th, 2011, 09:15 AM

Latest update

Here is the Timeline of this nightmare:
Proto's get made for racers
Place order for 10 kits told 3-4 weeks
8 weeks later still not made
New hardening company sourced
He shipped me rears - lost in the mail by USPS (August)
Needs to make new rears
Machine breaks down - Parts for machine not in until Friday 8-12
Shipped Fronts - (this week)
Needs to make new rears and will overnight

The guys machine was down, he was remaking the rear's yesterday and was sending overnight to me when he gets them done. I am truly dealing with the most unorganized, lack of professionalism, false promises shop on the planet. They have given me every excuse in the book and has tried to get out of making these. I have continued to deal with this guy because there are limited places that will make custom sprockets in the country.

As always if anyone wants a refund I am more than happy to do so......I will sell all of these because you all have seen what it takes to get them made. Keep in mind this is a completely custom setup.

Thank you for your patience!

Mark

aftermarketcycles · August 19th, 2011, 10:23 AM

In an effort to keep everyone some what happy I will be extending a 20% off on new orders until September 20th 2011 to any of you who had placed an order for the 415GP sprocket kit and your friends.

I emailed him and heres what i got: "Parts were going to ship Friday but supplier failed me again and his CNC Machine broke. I am mailing chains and front sprockets Wednesday so everyone has something and the rear I am going to ship asap. This guy is a complete idiot and I am taking the heat for it. Mark "

I am truly dealing with the most unorganized, lack of professionalism, false promises shop on the planet. They have given me every excuse in the book and has tried to get out of making these. I have continued to deal with this guy because there are limited places that will make custom sprockets in the country. As always if anyone wants a refund I am more than happy to do so......I will sell all of these because you all have seen what it takes to get them made. Keep in mind this is a completely custom setup. Thank you for your patience! Mark
