What size of standard 98 bird spocket ? and how long of standard drive chain ?

Thank you

Panote...airborne is correct (17 front 45 rear. 110 link 530 chain) when speaking of North American spec bikes. Because you are not in the US, you may have a different rear sprocket size as standard equipment....apparently in some countries it was an option to have a 46 tooth rear sprocket, and there may be more I haven't heard of. Unless you've owned the bike since new, you should always verify the sprocket sized because its so easy for them to be changed from factory specifications. No matter where you are, the 17/45, 110 link chain will work. You can change the front sprocket to either a 16 or 18 tooth for easier starts, or more relaxed riding on the highway, and still keep the 110 link chain size.

IIRC Aus and EU are 17/44 stock :icon_think: My XX is 17/44/110, although they are AFAM sprockets the PO(original) said he had kept the bike stock except for a higher screen and luggage :icon_surprised:
