Bigger Sprocket...What Chain???

I know you can't justify what exact length of chain you need with out having the stuff on the bike but by estimation would a 150 link be long enough for a 63 rear and a 14 front? I'm thinking no...but HAI's site says a 150 will generaly fit +20.......it would really help if anyone had a constructive responds....thank you!!!

Re: Bigger Sprocket...What Chain???

what was the stock chain length, and what was the stock gearing?

Two teeth take up one full link if I'm not mistaken........

also it depends on the bike.

Some bikes use 112 links stock, so if they go more than 16 up on a stock front sprocket, a 120 wont fit.

My buddy put a +15 on his 1000rr (don't ask why b/cause I don't even know) and it took a longer chain.

Re: Bigger Sprocket...What Chain???

I had -1 +2 and then I went with a 67 tooth on my R6 and I think I only needed 6 more links on my chain. I would say that a 120 would fit but a 150 will Def. fit on that setup.

Re: Bigger Sprocket...What Chain???

Here's a link to a chain calculator. You'll need to know the center to center measurement between sprockets. You can find several calculators if you do a search or if you're ambitious, you can find the formula for how to do the math yourself. I prefer the calculator:YEAH

When I ordered my 62tooth sprocket from sprocket specialties, i used the calculator and it was helpful then doing the math my hand.
So if your lazy or want reassurance then use the calculator.
