A Friend is sending me a New Barnett pinion gear [10 tooth]. Now all I need is the Barnett 84 tooth ring gear. Barnett gears are way pricey.

When I finally got a lady to answer at Rivera it was far from professional with a baby crying in the background. My money is going to Barnett.

Page 31, these guys have came on real strong with quality US machined Harley parts, bought a chrome moly trans sprocket from them. Don't see any prices for the rings gears but do good work


http://shop.evolution-industries.com/index.php?route=product/category&path=4&page=2
Did a little more work, $169.95 msrp for the kit, $117 for the ring gear with a warranty

Thanks but I already bought the Barnett ring gear last night. Barnett been around since 1948 and the best around. Tired of tearing this thing down chasing ghost so at this point I just paid price.
My buddy had the same problem with his Compu- and he bought the Barnett, had no more problems.

Sometimes you gotta pay to play and high compression or big engines do seem to find the weak spots, lets pray to the cranking gods you have fixed it.

I put a new stock HD starter in last week thinking that might fix it. So only thing left is change the gears to Barnett.

It is a shame Rivera is on the ropes right now, have their parts in some major power absorbing areas.

The Barnett clutch is a piece of art and too nice to cover up but found a Variable Pro Clutch closed out, think I know why now with Rivera in limbo. Let us know how the new ring gear works out, make sure you have some good cables on the starting system also.
