Not until the sprocket has eaten away the front of the swinging arm, you won't..

at least the chain will be well lubed, when it's eaten away an equal amount of crankcase

Yes nicely lubed chain, but it would probably chop through the clutch pushrod too, so it would interesting when the engine seized at 200mph!
Is there a calculation for the length of skidmark from 200mph with a freshly lubricated rear tyre?

Are you guys telling me my M900 won’t do 200 mph then? May as well just polish it instead.
