For the R6 the effected VIN number ranges are below.
RJ04E-0000015~0028429
RJ06E-0000012~0030477
RJ04Y-0000006~0002931
RJ06Y-0000004~0006432
Lol i wish you would of said something about this sooner lol. I was on my way to work and as i was slowing down to get off the ramp the Sprocket slipped off the drive shaft and i was just rolling down the ramp. Pushed it into the closest Gas station and had a buddy bring me some tools. I thought the Chain just jumped off or something. it was really strange to me. When i got it all taken apart the chain was still on the sprocket and the sprocket was just sitting next to the drive shaft. I was like what the hell they didnt put the lock washer on it. Idk what happened exactly. It had the 520 Conversion done about a month ago so im thinking the washer wasnt put on and the nut just wiggled loose
