520 chain conversion

On one

the 520 chain only changes the width of the chain/sprockets. You still want the same number of teeth.

The engine & rear wheel are both 89 600

is it still in the kat frame?.. if so you should have plenty of room for the 530 chain.
As per the previous post the width of the chain doesn't effect the gear ratios

Thanks rk97 & GSXFjim thats what i thought but needed confirmation before spending

Jim, its not in a kat frame its in yamaha frame which is much more narrow at the swingarm pivot, i modded & fitted the kat swingarm & will need to spin the sprocket carrier down a little to get proper chain alignment but the main issue is clearance on the frame, normally i would notch the frame but i'm not comfortable with doing it on this one due to the dia of the tube + i also need a little more clearance on the twin shocks hence the 520 idea

This is my rat bike & is 70% kat now which can only be a good thing but i didnt post a thread as its a yam frame

Hi Tone,
Please tell me that whenever you sell any of these bikes that you build, they come with a build sheet of all the different parts used.

a custom sprocket, would fix that issue. My choice is http://www.7thgeardesigns.com he created my custom sprocket.

JT probably won't have what you need, I can do a 4 bolt #520, not a problem.
