hello all, thought I would share what I found on my stock non-ABS 2014 w/ 4.5k miles.
I had begun removing the fairings when I found this

So i'm replacing the chain and sprockets. Initial thoughts are perhaps a rock got in between a tooth and roller? The rust on the piece indicates it's been like this for at least a year/ 2k miles. The chain IMO felt junky very early on- tight and loose spots all over. Maybe even some red dust.
