I might have made a mistake. I knew that the 42 tooth would fit from the other posts and from my measurements, the 43 tooth will clear the PRM skidplate, but I didn't think about the stock chain being long enough.

I'm also going to a 12 tooth front sprocket. My question to anyone that has done the rear swap is, Will I have enough length in the stock chain to fit around the 43 tooth rear or will I have to get a master link or half link to do it? If it's one of the later options, will I be able to get an O-ring half or master link?

Thanks for the help guys.

PS>>> I't sounds like I'm really gearing it lower, but I put taller back tires on. When finished, it will be geared about like a 12-tooth front sprocket with stock tires.

Am I figuring this right? Doesn't a 12/43 take up more room than a 13/42? I'm probably making it too complicated on myself.

Hyperactive,
Hey, did you get the email with the logo in it?

Bash, Does the 42 rear sprocket fit without shiming prm skip plate down for sure? I looked at mine and it looks like a 42 would hit chain guide on skid plate does it? I wanna know for sure before I go and buy a 42 does it fit with out shiming skid plate down and does it rub on chain guide at all?
Thanks
