I was just looking at the Renthal 428 chain conversion kit for the CRF230 and noticed the rear sprocket teeth are listed as 61, when the Honda stock specs say its 50, isn't a jump of 11 teeth a HUGE difference or is it a typo on someones part ?

The chain is smaller so there are more teeth. The ratio stays the same because the diameter of the sprockets stay the same.

That and the 428 conversion also uses a 16t front sprocket.

When I do that I just edit the last three with just smiley faces. It still looks dumb, but I feel better about myself...

Good advice.
