Chain installation question
 
I recently purchased a sunstar chain and sprocket kit for my superhawk. I went with a 16 tooth sprocket in the front and a 43 tooth sprocket in the rear. i know the stock chain length is 102 links for a 16/41 setup. but what would i need for a 43 rear sprocket? do i just bump it up to 104 links and break the chain where i need to put the master link? any help will be greatly appreciated.

The 102 link chain will handle 16/43, I have it myself. It does take the wheel t the very front of the adjuster but it also shortens the wheelbase and slightly quickens the steering, but not as much as a 6mm shim under the rear shock. Think of it as splitting the difference!
