    No, I'm about to cry, >

    "Drive chain excessively loose [6.2.1d] **DANGEROUS**"
    "Drive chain worn to excess [6.2.1e] **DANGEROUS**"
    "Rear Drive chain sprocket worn to excess [6.2.1e] **DANGEROUS**"

    :'( :'( :'(

    shouldn't be too expensive to sort as i'm pretty sure all you'd have to do is get another chain and sprocket set and fit it, although if your not sure send it to a garage to do it.

    Methinks you need to invest in a new chain and sprocket....

    Nothing serious though!

    That's not to drastic.
    Always look on the bright side.

    I would strongly recommend you get hold of an owners manual and start doing the regular checks required.
    If you need help then please ask as I'm sure someone will be willing to help explain things.

    When it says DANGEROUS what is means that if the chain came off, it could make a real mess of your flesh or even worse, get wrapped up round your wheel, come to an abrupt halt and throw you off into the path of an oncoming vehicle.
    OK, I've got a vivd imagination, but they didn't write DANGEROUS three times for fun.

    PLEASE start doing the necessary checks to make sure your bike is safe and ask us for help if you need it OK?

    when you get your chain etc, make sure to ask for heavy duty, dont go buying cheap rubbish that will only last less than 6 months
