Hello my names Mario I'm here with Expert Village and I'm going to show you how to change a chain and sprocket on a sport bike. Alright now we're going to remove the wheels. So this chain guards in the way so what we need to do is just pop these clips in like that. There's two of them, push them in and then with a flat head pull it out. It's just a plastic clip that holds them in there and one Phillips. Now we'll probably end up leaving this chain guard off because the new sprocket won't fit with the old chain guard so you can just discard those parts or save them. So now you have a loose chain right here and all you want to do, we don't want to cut it off yet, so we'll just wiggle this right off the sprocket. Just like that and now you're ready to have the wheel removed. Now be careful of these bearings, they'll come out like that and you need to make sure that you don't loose those because the wheels not going to ride correct of you don't have those on there. These are spacers, the bearings sit right behind there and same with the other side. This is a spacer right here, make sure you keep that in there.
