When I get the new 17 tooth sprocket and take it in to the dealer I will mention this to him. I am still leary that a new chain is going to fix this "roughness" I feel. If it does fine...if not I believe they will need to dig into the gearbox and think about something in there.
The dealer left the chain way loose last week when I picked it up ....way looser than anyone wouod purposely leave it. He told me not to be surprised if the rougness felt worse with the chain so loose. He was right about that it was worse to the point that I tightened the chain a little bit.
The existing chain looks good all the way.....the rear sprocket has no signs of any burring or excessive wear. We'll see.
