Lost my chain........somewhere.
ok, so i'm leavig work the other day, merge on to the parkway and shift from 1st to 2nd and nothing.
rev the throttle a bit and i got no acceleration. so while i still have some speed i imediately coast onto the off ramp as i'm switching thru the gears. when i finally come to a stop on the local road and start to look the bike over low and behold i don't have a chain anymore. i didn't feel or hear anything. just no power. so i call the wife to go to Uhaul and get a trailer and pick me up. anyway, my question (finally) is do i need to or am i supposed to get new spockets when i get a new chain? the spockets actually look ok to me. wanted the opinions of you more experienced guys............ front..... as you can see the only damage(really) is the washer being bent on the nut some. rear........ the teeth on both the spockets look prety good to me. any recomendations? get sprockets and chain, or is just a chain ok? also what brand? TIA, guys.
