There is an alternative to the factory steel item and one of the chaps on here - Fabian Corona - made a number of beautiful billet steel versions, one of which I was fortunate enough to purchase. They weighed something like 3.2kg (little more than the original alloy version) and would have worked perfectly well as a mantlepiece ornament, such was the machining quality of the thing. It's been on my car for some 10,000 miles and has no signs of wear whatsoever. If you search the Forum for his name, then you are bound to come acorss the thread where he told us about his (possibly one-off) efforts to do a proper engineering job on the item. Fabian was in France I believe. ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/OUk5DQ1.jpg) If anyone else wants to go down this path I would be interested in picking up one as well.

He used to be on TM as Fabi0000. Based in Liege, I think. I saw a price of €740 somewhere.

My poly coated sprocket is being delivered tomorrow. $ 575 My motorcycle shop can't get to it until July 8th.
I got a quote from the dealer I got the car from, not Morgan Motors of New England where I got the poly sprocket, for a steel sprocket.
Yes we can get one from Morgan. Price is $699 plus in shipping from UK and then to you. It is a heavy piece so I can't guess. Let me know if you want it.
So after July 8th I'll report how the poly sprocket install went.
The shop is putting on my new tires on Saturday morning.

Got my poly coated sprocket today. After seeing the post about the set screws backing out I took out all the ones that weren't buggered up. Put blue Loctite on 'em and put 'em back in. I think there were only 3 that I couldn't get out.

My local motorcycle shop swapped out the sprocket today. No more squeak ! Whoopee ! They charged $ 198 which I think is very reasonable. I gave them the PDF that went through the steps of changing the sprocket. They said they followed it but didn't have to take off the brake.
