Not sure if my rear wheel is beyond repair.

[Nestorpants]

Hey everyone, hoping y'all can help a noob figure out what to do with this.
So I turned out of my driveway last night and didn't even make it out of 1st before my chain came off and took the tensioner bolt with it. So this evening I took the wheel off to check everything out and found that things looked kinda trashed. When I took the sprocket off this metal ring fell out in a few pieces.

Also the bushings that held the sprocket bolts seem shot.

I googled and wasn't able to find the bushings so I'm hoping I'm just missing something but I'm afraid I might need to replace the wheel. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

What's it for - a Honda CB?

Unless it's some kind of super rare bike (that you can't find parts for), I would just ebay up a new one.

If in doubt chuck it out, safety first.

That hub is in really poor condition. Looks like the two lower cush drive mounts are missing the steel inner sleeve and the soft mounts have allowed the sprocket to move and further damage the hub. That's not the end of the world, but they are almost impossible to replace and then there's that steel ring which decided to fall out.

Grab a replacement wheel off ebay or from you local wreckers.

Sorry about that Big Rich it's a 69 Cl175 I should have specified that.

Frog and Teazer I'm gonna go with your advice and hit the junkyard. I did manage to find the bushings on eBay but they would take about a month to ship from Thailand not to mention the pain I'd have to go through to replace them for a questionable wheel.

Not a problem at all man. A 175 huh? Too bad it's your rear wheel - I have a front hub hanging in the garage.......

Rich, don't tell him I threw a couple of those out whatever you do ;-)

Gah! oh well. Going to the scrapyard is half the fun right?
