During routine maintenance of the swing-arm bearing on my 02 FXD at 39 000 KM, I was quick shocked to discover that 25-75% of the hard chrome had worn off the valleys of the rear sprocket. I was of the belief that these sprockets would last at least as long as the belt (which was in perfect condition) The front sprocket looks OK. I kept the belt tension on the loose side, just outside of the recommended range, maybe this had a bearing on the wear due to excessive whipping. I used the bike mainly for commuting for 7 years and am not an aggressive rider. I am just interested to find out other riders experiences with sprocket life.
