In the intrest of putting you right here is his post
 

Mines a 98 fazer and the front sprocket nut came off. Had to get a friend of mine in the uk to get the updated nut as the dealer in ireland couldnt get me one. Its done about 9500 miles and no problems since.

Here is my reply 

ah ha I see
had the sprockets been changed befor the nut came off
Also anyone who has has had an issue had to have the drive shaft replaced -not because of a thread strip issue but because the dealer measured it to be less than 17.5.
And if you have one less than 17.5 is putting on the 12mm nut a problem. By that i mean dont bother as it is the shaft that is no good 

Note my question "had the sprockets been changed befor the nut came off" Here is his reply[/color]

Had done about 2000 miles after buying the bike. But it did look like the old locking tab was used when the previous owner did the chain and sprockets. Logged

And my reply to that

    Ok so I dont think that one counts as a 98 fazer with the issue -as it had already been off by somone since the factory fitted it, and it is unkown how well it was put back.  Logged
