August 31, 201411 yr Author Great looking bike! Chain looks a bit tight? Sammyd 173 Very observant. Counted the chain and it only had 98 links on, went and got a new chain and it now has 102 which I believe is the standard for a 4 rt . I have however now ordered some new sprockets to change the gearing from 10 / 41 and will now have 9 / 43 which seems to be the way a lot of people run these bikes, no doubt will need a longer chain now ! Any way despite the chain every thing else seems very good and it's great fun to ride Fatty
September 1, 201411 yr My 2014 had a 102 link with stock gearing. If you are changing rear sprocket and chain for longer maybe try 10-43 first??? I had 10-41 stock and went to 10-43 for a substantial improvement is slowing the bike and general feel. Do most people go 9-43 for general trial comps? I suppose its what works for you though? Try the 10-43 first, its at least cheaper by a front sprocket price. Mags
