Chain and sprockets for the Suzuki GSX250 R

Match the pitch (520) and tooth counts in the table - chain and sprockets are a matched set, and a mismatched pitch will not fit the sprockets at all.

Frequently asked

What chain size does a Suzuki GSX250 R use?

GarageDex's manufacturer-catalogue data shows the 2021-2023 Suzuki GSX250 R uses a 520 chain with 14-tooth front and 47-tooth rear sprockets from the factory. (116 links)

What is the stock gearing on a Suzuki GSX250 R?

14-tooth front and 47-tooth rear from the factory, part numbers front JTF1447RB, rear JTR823.

What changes if I go +2 teeth on the rear sprocket?

Going up 2 teeth on the rear sprocket (or down 1-2 on the front) lowers the gearing: quicker acceleration off the line, but a lower top speed, and the chain usually needs to be 1-2 links longer to keep enough wrap on the front sprocket - a shop or the sprocket's fitment chart will confirm the exact link count for that combination. This is a generic mechanical rule, not a claim about this specific model's aftermarket options.

How many links does a Suzuki GSX250 R chain have?

116 links at stock length and gearing, per the manufacturer catalogue.
