I just ordered a Houser +1 1/4 swingarm. I was wondering how many links my chain needs to be, compared to the stock swingarm.


All help appreciated.

I had posted this same question last week and did not receive a response. I pm'd Rico and he told me that 2 extra links should do it. I had to purchase two factory links from Honda because the RK aftermarket links did not show a listing for the 520/sm10 model chain. They cost me around 8 bucks a piece and the good news is they are not masters, they are a press in style which should make them a little stronger. They are supposed to be in on wednesday so I will find out if they are enough. I think they will in my case because I have a 14T sprocket on the front and this kicked my adjustment back pretty far in the travel. I will let you know for sure by the end of the week!:)
