First, I share my new goodies I purchased. Very excited about em'.

Vortex 48T rear sprocket, new OEM front sprocket, PR 2CT's, and DID 530VM X-ring chain, and All Balls Bearings for steering head, frnt and rear whls, and new forks seals...*drool* I cant wait.

On the back of the Vortex packaging I found this formula for figuring out chain length after changing sprocket teeth! (should be last picture) :thumbup:


I wanted to throw this up here because after reading all the threads about chains I searched, none seemed to mention how to figure the amount of links in the chain. I lucked out and bought a 120 link chain (stock chain is 118 link according to Haynes) which ended up being exactly what I needed for 16t/48t. Hope this helps future modders.
