Drgnazz/Keith/Tandem Designworks = Bad Business
I bought a custom squid sprocket from drgnazz a while ago. I ordered the sprocket for an f4i which has a 6 bolt pattern. I never put it on because he took over 3 months to get it to me so I had to put something else on while I waited. I was gonna just sell it which I'm glad I didnt coz I wouldnt wanna screw anyone over. So I went to put it on today and its not for an F4i - it has a 5 bolt pattern. So I reach out to Keith and his response was that they went under and he's not gonna do anything to help me out and its my problem pretty much. He said that he was only a front man for them since he's been in the stunt scene for a while and all he did was powder for them. Regardless of the situation its bad business if you ask me and I wouldnt deal with him ever again - even on a personal level buying parts. Buyer beware because you may get fucked in the long run if there are any problems.
Anyway - 636 custom sprocket up for sale. When he text me I asked him what it was for and he told me its for a 636. I never had a 636 so dont know why I'd need a 636 sprocket. Here's pics. Lemme know if anyones got any interest.

Dont know who else does custom sprockets which kinda sucks But yeah a BIG +1 for people not taking responsibility. Honestly this is the first I ever heard that he was just a "front man" for the operation. He always pitched it as it was his shop and he had a partner. When I called his phone his voicemail still said this is Keith from Tandem DesignWorks He supposedly forgot that was on there lol

Keith is a good guy Ive rode with him he is only like 2 hours from me sometimes we meet up and ride together on sundays....he was only the front man for it but he quit making the sprockets like 5-6 months ago you had to get it a long time ago i got one of their last sprockets the reason they quit is the cut was turning out wrong like the distance of the teeth are too far apart so you have to use a stretched chain with it but o well they are badass sprockets just the guy that cut them was a complete ******* retard.

Im not doubting he's a good guy but I'm getting fucked in the long run coz they made a mistake. As I posted earlier the reason I didnt put the sprocket on earlier was coz he told me it would take 4-6 weeks to get but took a little over 3 months. By then I had already put a new sprocket on. Now when it was time to put this one on I realized it was the wrong one. Whether he was a front man or not he should rectify the situation. He made money on the sale of all their products so front man or not it really dont matter to me.

yea...i got screwed as well....went to put the sprocket on my bike and it wouldn't work either. Tried a 520 525 and 530 chain on my bike and no matter what it wouldn't fit. Hit him up and he said he'd send me something else and I never got anything. My fault for not keeping up with it but still shady. Sprocket also looked painted as wheelie said, not powdercoated. Maybe it was the sears powdercoating kit

I owned a gsxr before the f4i and i bought a steel subframe from him which is the reason I think he may be right? That also took a ridiculously long time to get BUT if you dont mind taking some measurements so I could confirm, Id appreciate that. Someone told me that the GSXR & Kawi sprockets are interchangable Dont know how true that is but Leahs 636 is at my crib and they're gonna be takin the wheel off to put on their dual cal bracket so when they do that ima see if I can see if this sprocket would hook up to the 636. It'll be a lot easier to get rid of if it would work with a 636 lol. But word Tanus, if you dont mind getting me some info, I'd really appreciate it Hit me back when you can
