Just about done restoring the Indian and I noticed that the axle is adjusted back to the furthest position.  I'm not sure how old the chain is so I was thinking about just replacing it.  Anyone know the specs for what type of chain I need?

Thanks!

5/8x3/8 530 I think, I'll check when I get home. Buy one with 120 links and cut it to fit.  ERC

It's defintely a 530, get the long one and cut it to fit. You may want to get a half link to go with it. One of mine needed it to get the thing to fit right without being to loose or tight.   ERC
