The place I went to doesn't have a website, but it is basically a place that buys stuff from industrial companies that are going out of biz usually, with a old guy behind the counter, where you just go, pick out what you need out of piles and shelves of crap, and the guy gives ya a price (usually real cheap) and you walk outta there..

There's a tool place kinda like that around here... But the stuff isn't strewn about and the prices aren't quite as low.
The 90t sprocket I found at monster scooter parts -

I found the pot at electric scooter parts .com under the throttles section -

they also have the 90t sprocket but it's $10 more. Everything is a little more expensive here then at other places. I'd go with mcmaster for everything, but they don't have the 90t sprocket.
I'll take the wheel to a bike place and see if they can screw off the old freewheel. I have anoter freewheel I can bolt a sprocket on off of another scooter. It has a 72t #25 sprocket, but I'll need a little bigger one. Want to gear for about 20-25mph on 24v, and the 72/11 combo I have now will get me 27mph, too much.
New Plan
I can get a 9t sprocket from mcmaster carr, use my 72t sprocket, and add some chain to the mix and then I'll have saved $20 on the 90t sprocket. How much do you think a machinist would charge to machine a 1/4" hole to a 10mm hole?
sprocket is part number 6793K1 and chain is part number 6261K283. McMaster Link is 6261K108
