Title: chain length

I tried to do a search, but couldn't find anything. Anyways, how many chain links for a '03 bandit 1200?

I just bought a 112 link chain (because that's what I was thinking it was) and had to cut it down to 110.

I installed a 16 tooth front sprocket on my 2003 Bandit 1200 and did NOT have to modify the chain length.  

I did have to adjust the wheel forward to accommodate the new sprocket and grind a bit of metal off the sprocket cover, but otherwise alll went well.
