Chain and sprocket injuries are one of the most brutal and permanent injuries in motorcycling. When a bike goes down and the wheel is still spinning, that exposed sprocket becomes a meat grinder. It doesn't discriminate between a crash and a routine cleaning. Fingers go in. They don't come back out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJust ask Johan Zarco, who nearly lost his entire lower leg when it got sucked in-between a tire and tail section of a Ducati at the last MotoGP round.   It happens!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSingle-sided swingarm motorcycles like the KTM 1290 Superduke are the worst offenders. The sprocket sits fully exposed, with nothing between it and your fingers or toes. It's a known problem — so well known that the AFM, one of the oldest racing organizations in America, requires a chain and sprocket guard to compete. No guard, no race.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere was no guard made for the Superduke.
