front sprocket

Post by SINGATINI »

just tidying my zxr4 up and had a look at the front sprocket...!
is it supposed to wobble about on the splndle?
the 2 pinch bolts are tight but you can move it all over the place
drives forward ok....

mines a bit wobbly. Once its spinning i doubt it makes that much of a difference. Cant say ive ever heard of anyones chain failing on a ZXR, especially due to a wobbly front sprocket.

I assume its just down to wear on the slotted hole.
