Default chain and sprocket details

i picked up a 03 f4i not too long ago for 1500 bucks but it needs some work, tires, chain and sprocket. i have already ordered the tires and the chain it is the stock length 112. i want to go +2 inthe rear while keeping the front sprocket the same. can i still use the stock chain that i have ordered? and does anyone have a sprocket set recomendation? i searched the forum with inconclusive results

i ordered the "quick acceleration kit" with the RK Chain and vortex sprockets last year. the QA kit is -1/+2, not just +2. the place i ordered them off of cut the chain to the correct length and everything, it was super easy.

i also went with a 525 chain and sprockets just because they last a little longer and i wasnt too concerned with weight or anything, its just a street bike i dont race or anything so i dont need 520

if i'm not wrong the chain should be a 108 link...i know my 01 stock chain is...
the stock chain links on a rr is 112...

i would just go +2 on the rear if you ride the highway.. unless you do a lot of city street riding then would go -1 front and +2 rear....as far as sprockets i would go with the steel because they last longer than aluminum... but hey it's your bike...

+1 on the chain...

stock gearing is 16/46
