For Those of you with +1 1/4 Swingarms

[Pepto_Bismol]

If you have an extended swingarm, can you please chime in and let me know what chain (brand model) you're running (number of links).

Standard (stock) sprockets.

Let me know. Thanks!

I am Running a Burgard +1. I don't know how many links, I just got another chain and cut where it looked good. I am running one sproket size down in the front and stock size in the back.
I run the Elka rear shock with their first generation link.

I really like the set up. When it c omes to tightening the chain is when I have my only complaint. One burgards swingarm, it can really be a pain to get sockets and wrenches around. Don't know if you can see it here or not.

buy a 120 link chain, then cut it down.... its always good to have extra just incase.

here's mine. Shane my buddy here (tamhart) hooked me up with this swingmarm. it's a Janssen +1.25". i love it. it weighs about just as much or maybe a few ounces more than the stock swinger but i think it's about invinsible. the traction is perfect. i get perfect starts all the time, awesome traction in the corners, i love it. i run the stock carrier, i just rebuilt it. i think retail is around $650. i don't have a close up pic of it.

I have a jb +1 1/4". I believe it has around 98-100 links. Can't remember exactly. I just got a 104 link chain from Rocky Mountain Atv. No real need to spend extra money on worthless links.

ZRider400 just curious what brand swing arm you have on there? Is it a LSR.

Thanks!

i have a walsh +1.25 with a rk 520mx3 chain, i too think it was like 96-98links, but i too like several bought 120 link chain and cut it down to what i needed,


i am on travel right now and if you cant wait til the end of the week, i still have the left over chain and will count how many links i cut for you.

if you dont want to wait and if you have a demel, grinder or chain break its a pretty easy job

i have cut o and x ring chains using the dremel and grinder, it will melt the rings exaclty where you are cutting (which you dont need) but does not effect any of the other rings

[ZRider400]

yep it is a LSR

ya.... i like that swing arm design too, makes getting to the carrier zirk a lot easier.


on another note, for all the walsh swing arm owners, i talked to nate walsh about drilling a 5/8-3/4" hole in the swing arm carrier housing for getting to that zirk without tearing it apart, Nate said it would be fine with no integrity loss, i will fwd the e-mail if anyone is interested in doing this.
