18T front sprocket...

I've re-read through this thread but do not see an answer to the question about whether

or not the 110 link standard chain fits if the 18T sprocket is used in place of the 17T, with

the rear sprocket staying the standarad. Would someone clarify for me, please? Thanks.

I'm positive I read somewhere that it does, if not this thread, then another. It was one of the advantages of going one up on the front vice down on the back.

It will fit fine. Just did mine about a month back

Well, like I said, my opinions were based on the gearing of the front and rear sprocket only.. I don't know what the trany's ratio is, or anything else about the blackbird either.. I just got mine, and it's as close to bine stock as you can get a bike.. Haven't even changed out the air filter, or turn signals yet.. I won't even be able to ride it for a few months because of my military duties.. But now that I know what the speedo pickup is off of the sprocket, I might move it, or go with the 18t front.. But one of the reasons I'm on this board is to learn about the bike before I start changing it.. Learn from others is the cheapest way to mod a bike..

Johnny Monsoon? :icon_rolleyes:
