Chain lengths

Post by **deviant** » Mon Nov 13, 2006 8:12 pm

I'm sticking this in here since I guess you racing types are more likely than most to know the answer.

I'm changing my final drive gearing from standard to 14/47. I'm guessing this will mean I need a slightly longer than standard chain. Can anyone confirm how many links is about right for this gearing.

Ta.

A standard chain length will go up to 14 > 48 no probs.

ahh well, i've finally actually got chain and sprockets in 14/47 and borrowed a chain riveter from a guy at work (actually some of you guys might know him, guy called Dave Scott, races an RVF in sb400), so might actually get round to fitting it this wknd.
