So there you go.

ALL karts have slightly different chain lengths, you need to decide what fits best and where.

It's not simply a case of BIZ kart = 98 links or whatever. It all depends on where your seat is set and where the left hand chain sprocket lies in relation to the engine mount. ie, too short and the sprocket bolts may hit the rear oil filler plug on the engine casing .

Also use Hairygit's chain length formula you won't be too far away from where you want to be.

Hope this helps.
