Chain Length Guide for Stretched Busas

[AlphaD]

Does anyone know of a guide detailing chain length for various stretched lengths?  

I have an '07 Busa (about 1500 miles) with stock gearing, and am about to install an extended swingarm at 3"-4" over stock.  I've looked at various chains, but am unsure if I should go with 120 or 130 links.

Thx in advance for any help...AD

I WOULD GO WITH AT LEAST 150 IN CASE YOU WANT TO EXTEND IT LATER ON, YOU WILL PROBABLY ONLY NEED 120 LINKS, IF YOU EVER SWITCH CHAINS I WOULD RECOMMEND THE EZ ZZZ CHAIN.

"These are approximations. It's always best to order your chain slightly longer to compensate for any unforeseen variables.


2 inches over add 6 links
4 inches over add 12 links
6 inches over add 20 links
8 inches over add 26 links
9 inches over add 28 links
10 inches over add 32 links
12 inches over add 38 links "

the 530 chain is 5/8" per link.

stock is 112 take the length you want to extend and add two links for each .625" (5/8")

So
Length extra links needed
1 3.2
1.5 4.8
2 6.4
2.5 8
3 9.6
3.5 11.2
4 12.8
4.5 14.4
5 16
6 19.2
7 22.4
8 25.6
9 28.8
10 32
11 35.2
12 38.4
13 41.6


Jay's chart seems to verify these figures and I'd still order a few extra to be sure.
