Gearbox Sprocket

Post by cbxchris »

Could someone please confirm ( or not) that the gearbox output sprocket what drive's the chain to the backwheel, should have a small amount of movement on it when the securing bolt is tight, thanks in advance CBX Chris

Don't know if it is supposed to be for cushioning or alignment but with a new sprocket and no visible wear on the shaft there is small amount of movement.
