Default 50 Tooth Rear Sprocket?

Can anyone tell me if a 50 tooth rear sprocket will fit with the lower chain guide? I know I'd need a longer chain but I'm just wondering as thats what's mounted on my spare wheelset that I'm purchasing tomorrow.

I know 49 fits as I ran one briefly. If 50 doesn't, it will probably rub the lower chain guide just a bit, maybe not enough to worry about, but I haven't actually tried it or seen one mounted personally.

I had a 52 mounted on my KTM, but I guess that doesn't do you much good, huh?

The 50 will only fit after you spend about 5 minutes with a dremel. It's simple, do it!

The short answer to your question would have been; no, it doesn't fit.

I spent 5 min with a cut off tool to get it to fit. I don't post much on here anymore due to a tool that post on here, but I can now ride 4th gear power wheelies and love it.

Thanks fellas, I'm thinking the black slider needs to be worked over a tad?

No josh its probably the rear chain guard on the lower part of the swing arm.
