Ditch that belt and go with a traditional 530 rear drive chain setup on your 2004 & Up Harley-Davidson 1200 Sportster. This chain conversion kit keeps the same gearing ratio as your stock drive belt setup. Remove the stock pulleys and simply install the front sprocket, the spacer and rear sprocket with the included proper length Grade 8 hardware. We also include a specially designed, stainless steel locking tab washer for the rear sprocket hardware. In addition to installing the hardware properly with clean hardware, red Loctite and proper hardware torquing, this locking tab washer physically stops bolts from being able to loosen. 530 chain not included, supply your own or choose one from the 530 Drive Chains here at Lowbrow and we will send it on it's way.
The transmission sprocket, rear sprocket, sprocket spacer and the included hardware are all Made in the USA to the highest quality available. Beware cheap imported imitations, ours are engineered and manufactured in the USA, heavily road-tested and built to last. The front sprocket is high quality nickel plated Chromoly steel, and the rear sprocket is 7075-T6 certified aero space grade aluminum for long life and light weight. The mounting hardware is Grade 8, zinc-plated, and includes super heavy duty 1/8 inch thick washers (also Grade 8). The locking tab washer is stainless steel.
This kit is designed to match stock gearing for 2004 & up 1200 Sportsters. The countershaft (front) sprocket is 22 teeth, and the rear sprocket is 52 teeth, for a 2.36:1 gearing ratio. This means that the countershaft sprocket rotates 2.36 times to spin the rear sprocket one full revolution. The less times the countershaft sprocket has to rotate, the taller the gearing, meaning less power off the line but better high-speed cruising. The rear sprocket has a 2.214 inch diameter center hole to properly fit 2004 and later H-D 1200 Sportsters.
NOTES: These are made for use in a stock Sportster frame or a frame or hardtail which uses stock spacing (such as hardtails which use the stock rear wheel assembly, brake, and axle spacers). If the frame you are using is a different axle plate spacing (width) or you are using a non-stock wheel this may affect the rear sprocket alignment. This is for use with a stock width wheel, and is not for a wide tire conversion. Because of tight clearance when using stock muffler mount or stock passenger peg mounts do not use an O-ring chain because the additional width may cause chain to wear at these components on deceleration.
