This is not about a Busa but rather a cbr1000rr that has me confused. A buddy of mine has a 04 1000rr. It only has like 2,000 miles on it. The first time it went to the shop a few months ago he found out that he had a broken front sprocket. This did not surprise me because as we were riding around last summer he was letting his chain get WAY too loose. I mean to where when I was beside him I could hear it rattling and see it bouncing up and down. Well when he had it in the shop I told him he needed to keep an eye on his adjustments and I recommended he replace his chain with a new x-ring chain while the old one was trashed. I put a DID xring on my busa last october and it is wearing incredibly good. My factory Zuk chain was streched like a Mo Fugger in like 5,500 miles. I have put 2,500 miles on this chain and it is just now needing adjusted. I figured this would solve his issue of his chain needing adjusted so often. However, he has only put 250 miles on his chain and it needs adjusted for a second time already. I was just wondering if the CBR has a rep for eating chains up or is it something he is doing riding possibly. Just need some help from some people familiar with the CBR cuz yesterday he showed this to me and I am at a loss. Thanks ahead of time.
