(I had to shorten it to about 3/4 of an inch beyond the tip of the chuck.)
Feeling happy...

The pulley still has ALL of it's paint except where it has road rash.
The bearing's rubber looks new too.

About 4" for a right angle drill, chuck and drill bit.

I went back to where it happened and found the pulley.
The barring seems okay but it's a little scratched up from the road.
Not sure why the bolt failed?
No sign of the spacer.

Thanks.
I will inspect tomorrow when I have some light.
It didn't sound like it came from behind the seat though?
Shouldn't cost too much to replace? maybe 25 dollars?
