    Offset Sprocket Security

    My offset sprocket loosened up a couple times during the rally last weekend.

    For those running offset front sprockets, is the general consensus to red locktite the sprocket nut on the shaft with heavy torque?

    There is not enough spline to utilize the standard lock washer.

    Thanks,

    Nic

    Just remember, an opinion without 3.14 is just an onion!

      Yes on the red Loctite if you can't run the lock washer.

        Get a counter sprocket nut for an 80 GS1100L sixteen valve.
