Front sprocket Removal

yep pretty sure you gotta take the footpeg bracket off. Careful with the bolt it's made of aluminum.

You have to take off the foot rest bracket -just 2 bolts and the big nut.

Also undo the shifter linkage - one nut.

Also - there's an o-ring back there. I replaced mine - some say it's not necessary for every sprocket change. Just so you know it's there.

One last thing: one user reported that the sprocket nut came loose and recommended folding over 2 ears of the washer. Seems like a good idea.
