Before everyone makes fun of you. Go to Motorcyclesuperstore.com. Most people use DID chains X's or O's. Either we have a 520 or 525 or 530 chain. Honda spec is 525, race is 520 or city retards like me use 530 which use more Hp than what is worth. 530 more control IMAO in corners.

# of links would depend on the gearing. Stock is a 108, some gearing combos might drop to a 106.

You add links for most gearing change, unless they are significant drops on the front tooth.

Yes... 525, 108 links is stock on the F2.

If you want to make the most of this bike on the street, I advise you go with a 530 chain, and go up three teeth in the rear. Get a chain that's too long (110+) and simply remove unnescessary links then rivet it on.

The sprocket change will incresae acceleration, far more than the additional weight of going 530 will adversely affect. 530 chains last longer, and are less prone to failure and tight spots.

thanks,
so then a 15/46 with a 530/110 chain would be a good combo?
