Crank case/chain snap guard?
 

I read recently that there is a DP part that can be fitted behind the front sprocket to protect the crank cases in the event of the chain snapping.

Does anyone know the part number for this item?

Not that I’m planning on snapping my chain or anything.

Yep, try Part # 46010301A.

Looks like this, I assume that's what your after.

Rgds, Rob

Bugger bugger bugger :flame::flame:


Wish I knew of such a part before mine snapped costing me £1400:sniff:

Should be about £20 Age.:mad::mad:

If only I had one four weeks ago.

My chain took out sprocket cover and made a nice whole at the same time.

Muchas Gracias Rob - and commiserations AGE996

For what that part is, you'd think they'd be tempted to fit that as standard, OK might be a bit OTT but if it will save you well into 4 figures, well.....

Damn right JPM, but then you could say that for all the manufacturers.

I had chains snap on me twice (not on Ducs) and seen the mess. Fortunately (for me) neither of the bikes were mine (one was a dealer's loan bike).

Also, a friend of a friend had a chain snap on a ZZR11 after going over a crest in France at about 150 - locked the back up - got very messy indeed (long and gruesome story). The little guard won't stop this sadly.

£16.99 inc vat from JHP. Not in stock though..

Orders one from Riverside in Northampton, as previously stated why is it not there as a standard item:puzzled:

Have they got them in stock?

They had neven seen them at all, I had to get the part number of the post so that they could order it

They will probably order it from JHP who dont have them either!!

They were standard on my CBR600 and my Fireblade, different shape but they did the same job

i snapped two chains in the last 2 years .........

that would have saved a bit of stress last time round........
can we get an official price on that....

could also do with being a little longer on the top run though eh!! (some people are never satisfied....) lol

Could it be that difficult to knock one up from a piece of sheet steel?

sorry i was going to buy one and then make ten myself :eureka:

Sorry to hijack the thread, but does anyone make anything similar for the 749/999? :D

same part dude......... :P

do you want one ... lol

sorry .. just trying to get my posts up :lol:

Yeah, why not, don't wanna end up in the same situation as Age996! :(

Hey...its all about quality, not quantity! :lol::lol::lol::lol:
Was this just a pointless extra post?!? :P:P:lol::lol::lol::lol:

not at all old chap ..... :D :D :D

but this one is :lol:

i snapped a chain last year on my 999 and damaged the left side cover and the swingarm ....
the best was my old dealer didnt want to fix it under garantee and the next track day his snapped and took ou the exhaust can as well......

pißßed myself i did :lol:

Hey Nathan, that was an extra 2! :D
Carry on doing this with all the threads and you'll soon be the record poster...closely followed by me! :lol:

I AM NOW GOING TO STOP! :devil:

Nat,

Mines the 888, not the one in the protection pic though, why?

I think this post could be of use to some of the DemsoDue guys too.

I might just invest in one !

Just checked with Italia, non in stock, but worse still, non in stock at the factory:o, with no delivery date.

Call me mr piccy........if nothing but honest, looking at all the crap and general state of the sprocket/chain area, no wonder it broke!
