Have you had any issues with the sprocket on the clutch basket breaking? Kinda hard to paint a picture for you since i dont have any pictures, but i have a broken bike in the back.

We have had 2 450 -19s breaking in less than 2 weeks now, where the sprocket has lost a couple of teeth, one bike with 7 hours on it and now one with 12.

Is this a euro-bike issue or has anyone on the other side of the pond experienced this?

If you fuggers would quit lugging your bikes in 4th gear this wouldn’t happen.

I have about 10 hours on my 19 and all good. Got it last week and love it. Hopefully this doesn’t happen to me if it’s a recurring issue with other people. Maybe I’ll throw my Mika front sprocket on it since I have one laying around.

Not front sprocket, the ”sprocket” on the backside of the clutch basket


This was apparently a ktm 65 clutch basket, but this is the ”sprocket” im talking about where a couple of teeth have gone missing, ill se if i can get som pictures when its gone
