Front belt sprocket internal gears were ground away. It didn't allow the engine sprocket to turn the pulley that drives the belt powering the rear tire. Resulted in a loss of propulsion while traveling at 55 MPH making riding to a safe location difficult, had to coast off the roadway. The attached photo is after the sprocket was removed from the bike. The pieces broken along the outside are from a gear puller during removal. The sprocket would only free spin making removal extremely difficult.
