Also, is there any way for me to determine what size chain I have? My Clymer manual doesn't have that information.

Sprocket Replacement (front and rear)
I have a 1981 Suzuki GS550T and I'm getting ready to replace the chain and sprockets. Is there anything else I need to be prepared to change in addition to the sprockets? (any gaskets, etc.)

Nothing else is required to be changed.

Air tools and/or a breaker bar.
Take your time, leave the bike in gear and don't get frustrated.
Leave it in gear helps when trying to remove that irratable front sprocketKeith

Boondocks, thanks for the information. I really appreciate it. Is that a pic of your dog, the German Shepard puppy? I have one myself, although he's 6 yrs old and 125 pounds. He's a big baby but he still has folks leary about coming around my house (which I like). I don't have to worry so much about my 4 yr old daughter playing in the back yard. :-D
