dan4th83

i think you are confused as to what 520 means

jd86

i'm not sure how the sizes work i just know some ppl say the chain will fit and then i was told i would need a 528 or 525 sorry for the dumb question i just want to have the right parts and get it right the first time

jd86

by the way i ordered a 520 conversion sprocket thats why i thought it would fit because thats the pitch right?

zride

my buddy says gixxers are 525... ....thats what chain I got but maybe different years, front/rear sprocket setups....?

StrictlyStunt

most people convert to 520 or 525

The 06/07 gsxr600/750 is a 525 chain...Yes you will need to get a longer chain...My 06 was 1 down 4up and the stock chain was too short...soo you need to order a 120 link 525 chain, and just take out as many links as you need to fit...but if you already ordered a 520 sprocket then order a 120link 520 chain

ya if you oredered a 520 sprocket then you will need a 520 chain, but dont forget to get a 520 front sprocket as well.

and you need a chain breaker and a grinder as well to shorten your new chain

take it to the shop and let them do it.

Just get a 300 link logging chain!!

you will be instant wheelie master!

Josh Faught

Ha Ha +1 on the loggin chain

jd86

i'm not just doing this for wheelies i have been riding for 3 years i just want to slow **** up and i was not sure how this stuff worked

jd86

ok i reordered a 50 tooth 525 pitch sprocket off kneedraggers i understand what you guys are saying about the 520 pitch and i feel a little dumb about it but thats how we learn you think that should do me up or should i still get a chain

Street Warrior

with just +5 you'll need a new chain but if you get a -2 front sprocket also you should be able to use you stock length chain. You could also get a -1, +2 combo which is about equal to +5 and you could use stock length chain with that. You don't need gearing to go slow though all you need is good throttle control and rear brake skills. If you don't have a cage yet I would get that instead of sprockets.

i picked up a powerworx a couple months ago thanks for the help tho

potassium26

yea man i put a 520 front and rear sprocket on my stock chain and it ate in all to hell.47 tooth sprocket now is 26 and 1/2.if you change one thing just change it all.
