Slightly different part #, probably because the E has a 11T and the S has a 12T, but it should fit.

 

Like maybe the case saver would somehow fit under my plastic cover thing?

I bought the sprockets tonight, I kept going back and fourth, back and fourth and said screw it and went with a 12 front and 39 rear for both bikes.
I went with sunstar brand as some people were saying on other forums they are a good brand and slightly better than JT (which is what I was looking at).

I just need to figure out which chain(s) to go with. I know I want an 0 ring .520 style, but how many links?

20" tires, 12t front sprocket, 39t rear sprocket.
I am thinking 84 but it might be 82? So much math, my head hurts.

 

Yeah, it should fit under the plastic thing. It's just a thin piece of metal.

Get the longer chain and reduce it to fit. I usually lay the chain on a vise with the jaws open about the width of the pin in the chain and drive the pin out with a punch and hammer. If you don't have a vise, you may be able to lay the chain on a 2x4 and drive the pin right into the wood like a nail. If you don't have a punch, you might hammer the pin flush with the top of the link and then use a 16d nail to finish driving it out. Nails are kinda soft, so it may or may not work. Punches are cheap though.

One brand is probably as good as another. Even the crappiest steel will last 10x longer than aluminum. I can't imagine there is that much difference in JT and Sunstar that you would ever notice in durability.

 

Yeah but it looks like the case saver is bolted tight with 2 bolts flush against it on the 230S (with no cover). Mine is a 3 bolt design that bolts from the OUTSIDE of the plastic cover snuggly. If I put the case saver in I am thinking it may flop around and not get a firm fit as I am not bolting the case saver directly over the sprocket, but putting the plastic cover over the sprocket and tightening that down. So I am definitely not sure it would even work.

Are you saying to go with 84 links over 82? I am not familiar with "O RING" chains, but if you can reduce them It might be wise for me to get the longer ones.

 

I made one before to fit a 14T sprocket.





Nevermind that red thing in the pic. It didn't work very well.

I think this one actually helped save the case. Looks like a chain impacted it at the top.

Yeah, you can reduce chains. I add and subtract all the time.

 

Here is mine.

 

It looks like the part bolts to the actual case on top, but on the bottom I am not sure if we both have the same screw hole for that...hmmm...but it also looks like if there was a case saver installed, it would not fit unless I cut out my plastic cover...it doesnt look like it would fit.

 

I went with (2) EK O Ring chains, 520 with 84 links. $42.99 a piece.
