Hi. I just noticed the chain guide (guard?, slider?) thing that the chain slides along is completely worn through close to the front sprocket. So much so, there is a bit of wear on the swingarm itself, which feels a bit sharp.

Should be a pic here:

So...

1. I'm assuming just smoothing off those sharp edges on the swingarm will be enough and I don't need to go nuclear and replace the swingarm...
2. Can anyone recommend a good place to order (or go buy) XR650L parts from? I want a new guide/guard thing, and may as well replace the chain and rear sprocket (I have a front sprocket already waiting). EDIT: Sorry, meant to specify... anyone know a place in Cape Town area? Otherwise online order...

Thanks!
