My primary chain snapped at 7,500 miles, exited via the front of the casing. Oddly, since the front crank cog wasn't obstructed, the engine carried on ticking over nicely, with me watching through the hole! Engine replace under warranty, but took two months, during which time I bought another bike. 12 months later I still haven't quite got round to selling the GT, although I have since paid off the finance. Might end up keeping it and finishing the mods on it!
