    How many links in stock 630 chain on a 85 GS1150EF?

    I'm replacing the chain and sprockets on my 85 GS1150EF. Going 630 chain, 15T and 42T. I believe this is stock. How many links should there be?

      I can check my FSM this evening if you don't have an answer by then.

      When consulting the magic 8 ball for advice, one must first ask it "will your answers be accurate?"

            Why not go with a 530 setup if you're already planning on new sprockets? That's what most folks on here recommend.

              Agree, 530. It's lighter and plenty strong.

                I appreciate the feedback but I could get the 630 set up quicker (my local bike shop (and their suppliers) were having some trouble getting the 17T and 48T set up for the 530 kit I wanted) and this isn't my primary ride so going with stock set up was fine.
