After the axle nut is off can the sprocket be removed with the chain adjusted to its loosest position? Or does the chain need to be broken? Also is the chain adjustment tool included with the bike? If it is I cant locate mine :(
Thanks in advance.
Dunno if you need to break the chain, can't imagine you do. Worst case you should be able to slide the sprocket off with the chain on then remove the chain.
Any shock tool or the like (a screwdriver and hammer if you are in a bind) will work to adjust the SSS.

Nah...
you can get it off.
Don't know about the tool coming with the bike. :-\
Tool didn't come with my S2R1k, and my understanding is they don't come with the M1100 either.
Can easily get the sprocket off with the chain adjusted to its loosest position, too.

Thanks guys, i'll have to stop at the dealer and pick up the adjuster.
Got it installed. :D But on the 1100 you have to take the slave cylinder and rearset off to get the sprocket off :o No big deal, they came off easily. Thanks for the input guys.
