Power Train · at 5,876 miles · reported Mar 3, 2011
Rear wheel locked up when accelerating from stop at traffic light. Motorcycle stalled and I could not get it to move forward. Thought brake was stuck, but after visual inspection noticed all the bolts (5) in the rear sprocket had sheared off. It does not appear that the bolts backed out of the wheel hub, because part of the bolts remained in the bottom of the threaded portion of the hub. After removing the wheel and inspecting the damage it appears that the stainless bolts, aluminum hub and loose fitting holes in the sprocket all played a role in the failure. Note: to the best of my knowledge…
Suspension · at 10,900 miles · reported Aug 9, 2009
