waiting for a woman to apologise is seldom a productive use of time.

Just tried adjusting the chain and realised it was mostly pointless as the chain is stretched to a ridiculous degree. Will be purchasing the DID Chain+ sprockets, If Mr Keating can lend a hand with rivetting and fitting ;D?

If you and Mr Muscle can't get the front sprocket off, give me a shout!

Yeah, nil problemo. I'll bring a bunch of large sockets, my tyre iron, angle grinder and the riveter. When we fail to get it off, Nathan can bring his breaker bar and big barsteward hammer.

Don't cut the chain off before loosening the sprocket this time!

Socket set ordered... now the waiting game.

I've done chain and sprockets on a few SVs and don't remember the front sprocket nut being particularly difficult except for on the one where the chain was missing. What am I doing differently to you lot that have trouble getting the nut off?

I normally get steel sprockets and a heavy duty Izumi chain from wemoto. Had a renthal rear sprocket before and it was fubared in no time despite having a scottoiler and regular cleaning and checks.

Good thing about the Izumi chain is it comes with a split link and a rivet link, i usually fit the split link and then ride to my normal bike shop and get them to fit the rivet link for me as my tool broke ages ago and I never bothered replacing it
