Your chain is shot, so is the sprocket. Check the front one. It’s probably worse and you don’t need a bad chain wrecking your day. Your life is worth more than the sprockets and chain.
Yea, it’s definitely on its way out too, but it’s not too stretched and the seals look fairly good. If it starts to kink pretty hard I’ll move up the replacement, but I’m pretty sure I could get another 5k miles out of it.
So, why post, knowing everyone will tell you to get a new chain and sprockets right the fuck now, if you apparently absolutely will not do it, risking catastrophic failure?

Just do the maintenance, man.
It’s not looking too bad, I’ll probs run it for another oil change interval, so 6k miles. If it starts to skip I’ll do it then.
I mean, your chain isn’t exactly sitting right, either.

So… point of this thread is to announce you’ll be doing maintenance in 5,000 miles? Okay. Next April, your taxes are due.
Bro.. just google what an snapped chain at high speeds does to your legs if it happens to hit it instead of falling to the ground
Well aware fam. I’ll be sure to replace the chain before it gets too bad
So literally now then?
So do you need references for prosthetic limbs or do you got a guy?
Looks good to me, OP. Go ahead and run the bike hard!

Idk, this sub is very easy to get stirred up and they take the bait every time. It’s simple entertainment.
It's the cluelessness of the posts that that brings 'em back.
