| A 525 chain is 5/8" between pins length wise as is a 520 chain and the 525 chain is 2.5/8" (5/16") wide between side plates which is also the sprocket width, where as the 520 chain is 2/8"(1/4") wide. All chains marked in this way refer in 1/8th of a inch to the chain size, ie 630 is 6/8 X 3/8 and a 530 is 5/8 X 3/8. but a 532 although it is 5/8 X 3/8 has larger diameter rollers than the 530 chain.
Felix can you do a chart like Shazaam's for the longer swingarm.
Only kidding worked it out for myself.
998addict i've been runing a 14th with a 525 chain on the race bike all the time I've had it with out any worries, I will soon be changing from a 94 link chain to a 96 link as the cocentric is to far forward when runing a 38th rear sprocket, but been putting it off in the hope of fitting a longer arm which would then require a 98 link chain
