Wow! Thank you once again, Katflap. I am adding both those links to the Zongshen RX3 Sticky thread, under the Manuals subheading. The RX3 Sticky thread is permanently pinned to the top of this Dual Sport Forum.

Perhaps I am mistaken, but I deduced that site was located in Europe. Of course, RX3 owners in North America and elsewhere can use that website. Thank you for posting the link.

Perhaps erroneously, I assumed that shipping costs, VAT, et cetera will add a lot to the prices from that website. In the United States I think it will be almost impossible to get better prices than I get buying Zongshen parts from the Taobao website in China.

just wondered ,didn't know if the site was in someway blocked or they didn't deliver to the U.S.A.

Never used it myself.

As you have said, the shipping prices are pretty steep. Going direct to Taobao is going to be best

I have been looking for alternative front sprockets of the right size just to see what was available , seems there as rare as hens teeth .if the AJP PR5 uses the same engine then I did find this

chains and sprockets are listed under AJP SERVICE PARTS tab

this is a uk site but if these do fit then it then it proves they do exist

I also tried that link, Allen. However, the last position listed is two weeks ago, on January 26. I wonder if anyone can find a link which shows the current position of the ship?

Heres another vessal map . It looks like more up to date, though up to 72 hours lag time. the other map listed above looks like the vessal is going the wrong direction like on its way in to pick up the containers????

Thanks for posting the great link. After registering and activating my account, I see the Minben is sailing east down the Yangtze River from Chongqing. The current position is 16 hours old.

Great guys! Keep it up. Loving this, (enough to get off the wallet and be a sponsor! Money with my mouth..hehe or close as can be!
However, should we get some leg breakers together to unload these, and not be just circling LA, indefinitely? I would be a baseball bat sponsor (looking at 30's union films, the weapon of choice! to get my zong ASAP!

J/K I think...!

As of 16 hours ago, the Minben was located at the confluence of Shennong Stream on the Yangtze River, sailing east from Chongqing toward Zhongxian.

How long does it take to cross the Pacific?

Port to port is 7-10 days. Depends on ship used.

It is time in port loading and unloading.
Or time waiting to enter port that can bog things down.

My products from Japan are 4-6 weeks from factory to warehouse in MO.

As of two minutes ago, the Minben was heading east at 8 knots, and approaching Wushan on the Yangtze River.
