What are you guys running? Can I find a good kit or do I have to piece together sprockets and chains? Im not sure what tooth sprockets to get, my sporty is going to be an around town bike but I would like it to have some get up and go, so lower end torque/power I guess is what id like? It wont be used on the freeways or on longer trips, my dyna will do that.

You can get any chain you want since the kit doesnt come with one, but you can buy the chain at the same time.
I cant remember how many links, since mine has 15 inch shocks and 19 inch rear tire. I just bought a chain splitter and did it myself. The seat comes in a black gel coat that wont match vivid black, it does not have the shine.

The chain kit removes alittle weight when you also count the lighter sprockets. The chain gives you alittle more room for clearances when modifications to suspension and wheels and tires. Also easier and cheaper to change and or repair.. plus it just plain looks better. Drawback is it will throw crap on your wheel. I use the X ring chain and love it.
