I'm going to buy a 57 tooth rear sprocket. Right now I got the stock chain on, but I plan on buying a new chain also. Can somebody recommend the number of chain links I will need to fit this sprocket? I'd rather have more links than not enough links. Thanks
how many chain links do I need???

hm, lets see here. Stock with 43 tooth sprocket is 114 so....
114 divided by 43 = 2.6511
X divided by 57 = 2.6511
x = 2.65 (57)
x= 151.116 links
Thats my guess in order to keep the same ratio :dunno

mechanical speeds achieved with a 57 tooth rear sprocket, everything else unchanged.
1st 61
2nd 82
3rd 101
4th 114
5th 127
6th 136

See, 136 is fast enough for anyone! I would hate to cruise the highway with that. You would be about a bazillion RPMs at cruise speed. But I guess you could almost power wheelie at any speed. :lol
