I've looked a ton of places on this forum and google but it'll be faster to ask: What is the standard for a '96 CBR F3 sprocket/chain ratio and what would you recommend/why. Is it about 520 chain ~ 108 links and 520 sprockets 14/43?

 

bump - anyone?

 

stock is 15/43

I think stock is like 15/43.... or 2.87 if ratios is your thing.
I'm not sure what else you're asking?

The stock chain should be a 530 w/steel sprockets. I probably wouldn't do a 520 conversion on my bike, but some do. It just won't last as long as stock with steel sprockets.

On recommended ratios.... I dunno. I generally like to go up a couple in the rear, but don't like too extreme high ratios because of highway riding/economy.

 

Awesome - Thanks, that's what I was looking for!
