I had a 175 2 stroke that was shearing sprocket bolts until I replaced them with case hard bolts, never sheared one again and it never damaged the sprocket. If yours have flats on them it may not be worth the effort to grind them to fit vs just waiting for parts but it worked for me so I thought I would throw it out there just in case.

I changed the sprocket on my Bashan Storm within first 60 miles (Bashan makes the Brozz and Recon). I don't recall any obvious problem on the bolts. My son took over that bike. We will take a look!!

All 4 sheared because all 4 took the abuse, and they likely broke in a series instead of all at once. One went, then the other 3 took more abuse, another one or two, then the last. It is/was a more common issue with the original Hawk 250 because it was assembled with whatever the cheapest they could get at the time parts. The Bashan bikes tend to come with a little better quality control, but they aren't immune to the cheap bike problems. There has been a few Brozz owners that had stud failures on here. This is why I order them from Partzilla (link above) because they come in OEM Honda packaging, so they are at least built to OEM Honda quality standards, even if they are likely also made in China. I have only ever had OEM Honda replacement studs on my bike, and I have never broken one.

Yep. Had mine snap on me when I was about a mile from home. Left an intersection and lost all power... rear sprocket was just spinning. Ironically this was right after someone told me "Nice bike" at the store. |

I have a Lifan KPR and this thread made me get off my chair and go look just to be sure. Thanks!

got the bolts , now i am putting it back together, quick question , does the axle spacer go ton the chain side? looks like the brake caliper just fits into the hub on the otherside , but it seems like a tight fit with having to slide the caliper in the slot on the swing arm. Any links to video would be great

Yes, it is a bit of a tight fit and a little tricky to get it all lined up and installed properly.
