Hello,

I started some maintenance today. Wanted to change chain+both sprockets, and take the swingarm out to have a good look at it and check bearings (+ linkage bearing).

First "easy" issue: The swingarm protector has two little (7mm and 3mm) holes on the underside, where the chain hits it. The swingarm itself starts to wear at the same location, but it is really light.
So i'm looking to buy a new one, can someone please confirm 11D-F2151-00-00 is the correct part number? Looks so on different website part diagram, but it's labelled as "seal guard" ?!
Or if there is a good trick to fix it for cheap, it's only wearing in a few location and it's just plastic anyway, right?


Second issue: one nut holding the rear sprocket don't go out. It's spinning but it seems that either the nut thread or the screw thread is f.. up. I did not know you could damage the threads when unscrewing, or was it like that from the factory (as far as i know this is the stock sprocket i'm trying to remove).
Anyway, what's the best way to get it out? As the screw itself seems to sit in a threaded hole in the sprocket carrier, I'm considering piercing the screw, tap the hole and use this to get the whole screw out. Not sure if it will work as i guess the sprocket carrier screw is well "locked" somehow (loctite or what). Not sure either if it's better to get it out to the outside or to the inside of the carrier (both should work)?

Thanks
