In Superstock they only use cable ties to retain the sprocket carrier.
Main issue is the extra rotational and unsprung weight.

I recently fitted new heavy duty cush drive rubbers to the Busa and even with red rubber grease the sprocket carrier was such a tight fit I had to compress it in place and hold with cable ties to fit the wheel. Cable ties removed once in place...
