Sorry to hear about your problem matey but it's not too uncommon all the info you need is here http://foc-u.co.uk/index.php?topic=92.0 and here http://foc-u.co.uk/index.php?topic=22656...#msg261329 Have a good read the latter has a copy of the tech bulletin in the thread. From what your saying you are going to need a new sprocket shaftcome back if you've got any questions

I'm not sure what your garage is telling you ref 17- 16mm these are easy to get hold of in the UK and the thread isn't 17mm it's 17.5mm which is also easy to obtain in the UK. I hope he isn't charging you storage? If he is I'd get your bike back and go elsewhere.
He did say what he ordered cost about 20quid from china, where could he have got it from over here?
I dont feel like this bike will be getting fixed so im looking at buying a 04 fazer 1000 with 29k on it, would that bike have the same issue? I could get a fazer 600 again and if i replace the 9mm with the 12mm does that eliminate the problem completely?
Thanks for all the replies/help guys.

This is what i was saying earlier, since word got round that everyone should really change the sprocket nut to the new 12mm version asap the subject has more or less faded away for quite a while now.
And as mentioned as long as any new sprocket/chain is fitted, Loctited and torqued competently then yes it does seem to have all worked out okay.
