Bil,
The correct length is 108 links. As for the sprockets, I believe they
switched from the 18t to 19t in either 2000 or 2001. So if you want
stock sizes, you need 19/43. The best source for the front sprocket is
still Triumph, as they have the rubber damper built into theirs. I
don't know if any other manu. makes the front sprocket that way. I'm of
no help for rear sprocket though, as I haven't changed mine yet. So I'm
listening for suppliers as well...
