What owners report

2016-08-15, Power Train
2 OUT OF 5 BOLTS BROKE THAT HOLD THE REAR SPROCKET IN PLACE. ONE OF THE BOLT HEADS DID SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE TO THE FLYWHEEL AND EVEN BENT THE END OF THE SWINGARM. SOME HAVE STATED THAT THIS IS NOT UNCOMMON AND WAS LIKELY DUE TO THE POWDER-COATING ON THE SPROCKET WEARING OFF, ALLOWING ENOUGH PLAY/MOVEMENT TO RESULT IN THIS FAILURE. THE MOTORCYCLE IS COMPLETELY STOCK, HAS HAD NO MODIFICATIONS, AND THE REAR TIRE/WHEEL HAS NEVER BEEN OFF THE MOTORCYCLE. FORTUNATELY, THIS FAILURE HAPPENED ON A RIDE OF LESS THAN 5 MILES ON LOCAL ROADS. IF THIS WOULD'VE HAPPENED ON A LONGER RIDE AT SPEED AND ANY OF THE OTHER 3 BOLTS BROKE, IT COULD'VE RESULTED IN A CRASH.
