Caution I may have been dudded beware!
After much looking around I ordered a new disc, sprocket and chain set from Stealth Products in Sheffield. They are featured in some of the articles penned by others and recommended as suppliers of good product. They seemed great to deal with and made all the right noises so I paid for the parts and told them to go ahead and supply. That was weeks and weeks ago. I became worried when my emails asking about whether the parts had been sent were not replied to. No response at all. The last enquirey bounced saying the mail box I was trying to send to was full so I have no means of following it up here in Australia. I felt I might warn others of this potential problem as I am now down well over $400 and still faced with the problem of needing the bits. It hurts to pay once let alone twice. There might be a reason for what has happened but be warned. If any Raptor owners are in Sheffield would it be posible to make a phone call and see if they have shut up shop or what is the go, thanks den.

Hi Den,
Stealth were very much alive and kicking about two weeks ago, as they had a stand at Donington Park for the MotoGP.
Shall make some calls for you, as I'm sure other's will as well...
after thought....depending where Stealth are in Sheffield...Sheffield was subject to some very severe floods a few weeks ago that wrecked the meadowhall area around the steel works !!!!

thank you very much, the Raptor brotherhod is alive and well, I would love for there to be a reasonable explanation as you have indicated. You just don't expect to be ripped of by a company that so many people have used and when you read the introduction at their web site about 20 years of operation. Thanks in advance to any one who help me sort this matter, Den.

I got my front and rear sprockets and chain from the Chain Gang over east. I've installed the front but the rear ID was too small. Have to take the back apart to put the new disc on so will get it machined then to fit. The style and everthing else was right it was just the ID.
Stu from Austreetfighters is good for screens, bellypans, huggers, footpegs etc.

But B&CExpress came up with the goods for me eventually

however now I have to get the whole back end off again 'cos the shock has shot it's oil
