I have a 97 XX and it has 45,000 miles on it. I just picked it up and I was changing the Chain found the front sprocket loose, as in it moves right to left, rocking, as if it is floating on the output shaft, the nut and washer was there and tight on the output shaft. It is an OEM sprocket and quite possible the original one from the factory.
There did not appear to be any undo wear on the output shaft.
Has any one run across this before???
This is not normal is it???
All the other bikes I have messed with, the front sprocket did not "float"....
