Yesterday was amazing weather, so I decided to go for a ride. I checked the air pressure in both my tires and put the swing arm stand in place to clean and lube the chain. As I am spinning the tire and wiping down the chain I notice that the chain is not riding on or near the chain guide on the top of the swing arm.
So I removed the cover over the drive sprocket and noticed that the retaining nut that holds the drive sprocket in place is missing, not loose but MISSING! I was mad at first that it was gone then I realized how lucky I was for the chain and sprocket not flying off while I was going down the road. I'm thinking about drilling through the shaft and putting a cotter pin through it.
Just glad the chain :zombie: didn't bite!
P.S. I just had to use that zombie!
