yeah id go with that, I like the idea of the extra stability. You use the std chain with a bigger sprocket then look at it. The bike just dont look right.

The 500 mm thing is something jhp said...........same for the 998 etc... although you struggle to get5 any where near with a std swing arm. The 999 etc has a longer swing arm as std!
