Rear Sprocket
To replace the rear sprocket, you will have to remove the wheel,
First place the machine on a centre stand or, paddock stand.
If using a paddock stand, make sure you have have it positioned well. You
should be able to remove the spindle, AND get to the chain adjuster bolt
and nuts
Place a 22mm socket or spanner on the nut above (you can lock that
into place)
After removing the spindle clip (if you have one), and undoing the
27mm nut, I used a very large engineering screwdriver, as a drift and a
nylon hammer, to remove the rear spindle, once that is done, the rear wheel
can be romoved easily
Remove the 5 nuts that secure the sprocket to the wheel and wiggle
it free
Place new sprocket onto the stunds, and put the nuts on (I find it's
easier to wait until the wheel is fitted, and the paddock stand removed,
the bike in gear, before torquing them down properly.
To replace wheel, just reverse the steps above, make sure you have
the spacers on the correct side of the wheel, or the wheel will not turn
when clamped down, also make sure the caliper bracket is in the groove
on the right side of the swinging arm
