Empulse Chain...what number of links...
« on: April 11, 2015, 01:42:55 PM »
I'm thinking of getting a new chain...in either gold or red...

What number of links does the Empulse need?

Thx

The Empulse chain is short; you do not need that many links.  Take a look here for my experience on it. 

The 96-link chain was the shortest they sold and it was more than enough.

um.  Trying to bite my tongue here, but with the bike sitting in your garage, it shouldn't be that hard to figure it out.   ::) 

In any case, you probably want to consider one of these: http://www.amazon.com/Chain-Breaker-Remove-Motorcycle-Heavy/dp/B00MVR1R7K/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1429266338&sr=8-1&keywords=415+chain+breaker

If you want to really get a precise answer, go here: https://www.rbracing-rsr.com/chainlength.html  That's what I use when I'm building a bike, and don't have anything I can measure yet.   8)

You inspired me to make a post on the subject: https://evmc2.wordpress.com/2015/04/17/chain-length-calculator/
