is there any diff in doing the 530 conv for the L bikes verses the Es. and does anyone know off hand what size offsett i need for the frt sproket (i think that is all i need right>>>offset frt 530 sproket 530 rear sproket and a 530 chain )

No difference. The L had a 15/40 ratio and the E had a 15/42 ratio; but otherwise it's the same.
No need for an offset sprocket as the front sprocket sits flat on the countershaft bushing - you need a 6mm spacer on the nut side of the sprocket.
I kept my ratio stock L with a 17/45 and 114 link chain. In hindsight, I should have used a 18/48 or 18/50, which would use a 116 link chain.Last edited by Tom R; 05-02-2011, 09:29 PM.-1980 GS1100 LT
