Thanks for the reply (despite the dire prediction... :'( )
Stupidly, I never thought to take any pictures yesterday before I buttoned everything back up!
Will take pics on Tuesday/Wednesday when the 12mm nut & washer arrives.
(I put blue loctite on it yesterday when reinstalling it - The bit of jerk/lash I was feeling rolling on/off throttle is gone {for now...} and I don't want to disturb it in the meantime as the bikes my only transport).
I noticed when I was taking it off/putting it back on that there is 2-3 turns that required the socket but closer in, it gets tight to a point but fairly easily goes loose again. Possibly the inner thread is banjo'd and outer is still good?
Have been trying to fined Unfazed's solution to the problem but everytime I see it linked, the link redirects to the home page!
I think he somehow managed to drill the shaft to take a nut after the sprocket?
I was thinking, if possible - drill the 12mm nut and tap this to take a 3mm grub screw and loctite it all in.
Probably fanciful thinking though, dunno if the nut would take a bore like that without fucking it (weld the outer edge after?) or interfering with the actual nut thread let alone would this be in anyway a string enough solution even if possible.
