I was considering a few choices, but I don't know what type of offset that I should be using.


I am taking a 2006 xb12r, and converting to chain for track day/race usage. I will be sticking with a slightly more aggressive than stock ratio (I"m a heavyweight), and using a 520 width chain. Does anyone know what the front sprocket offset needs to be to mount it to a vortex rear sprocket? I am considering ordering the coated black aluminum rear.... as soon as I figure out the front ratio I can order the rear to achvieve around 2.8 to 2.9 final reduction.


Thanks in advance for your help everyone!!!


-love,

ol' Porkchop.
