      I have never had to do this, but rumor has it that Z1 Enterprises is a good place to start.

              Has something to do with the shaft drive, right?

                  I googled this "motorcycle chain conversion chart" you should try it. it'll help you.

                  I on the other hand,
                  Lawn mower spindle washer. Fits perfect.
                  Could be a little thick but the stake washer still sits firm.
                  On the '77 750, didn't need the spacer, this 1000 engine with the sprocket off the 750 does.
