I have a 01 M900 and I am currently mounting up a new chain, f/r sprockets. I went up to a 41R sprocket and the chain out of the box is 108 links in length. Does anyone know how many links a 41T rear and stock front sprocket will need. I am sure I can "guesstimate" once I get everything cleaned up(nasty buildup around front sprocket!) and put the wheel back on but if anyone is running this setup it would be great to know how many links you have in chain lenght. Thanks!

Most folks will lay the chain up, set the adjusters midrange, then align the pics adjacent to each other, THEN cut the chain to length and install new rivet.
