Hey guys, 

Im waiting for new chain puller part, meanwhile

question is can I ride without those parts marked on image. Or in another words, is chain puller holden tightly by  central pivot and stuff, and chain puller nuts are not so important? :}

(mechanic was changing tire, he forgot to fasten nuts and.... )

You could get by w/o jamb nut for a short distance but the other is kinna important, holding the rear wheel assembly from cocking in the swinger or changing it's chain tension due to braking and chain pull forces. 

Just swing by the local hardware store and replace them. 

And seek a mechanic who puts things back together correctly/carefully,

Ride safe.

looking how tore up it is, you need a new swingarm also.

Yeah, I'd be a little pissed! That swing arm needs to be replaced as well-

Awesome guy was changing tires in my bike. He didn't tighten nuts (25) properly. While driving they got loose and part (23) probably rotated and hit rear sprocket, resulting in chain puller screw to bent. That's my guess.

Did you crash? Glad to hear it sounds like you’re ok since you’re responding on here.

Without registration you see no pics, but the damage looks quite similar.

We should better check this nuts and gapless fit of part 23.

nope..I didn't even register that something is wrong. I've checked videos from my cam and I made about 150km with this thing destroyed.

Thanks... I think I will add those nuts to 'loctite this' and 'check from time to time' list ;)
