Re: chain and sprocket help
You need exactly 120 links to put a 60 tooth sprocket on your bike
Here is how to find it
( Difference in Teeth / 2) + 1 = Links needed to add to stock chain
Stock sprocket is 43 Teeth and the Chain stock is 110 links
( 17 / 2 ) + 1 = 9.5 , so round up to 10 . 110 + 10 = 120 Link Chain

Re: chain and sprocket help
116 links on a 47t? You sure about that? On my Gixxer I was running a 62t rear and my chain was 120 links.
