Anyone know the chain pitch and # of links for an E series kdx200? Nothing in the manual, only sprocket gearing

520

110 links

On the FRP video, he said to be able to run a 110/100-18 tire, to use 112 links.

1986 - 1988 is also 110 links stock. 1995+ is 108 links stock.

As I'm only a newbie and all, can I ask why you didn't just count the links? I just ordered a new chain and did that in case someone had played with the sprocket sizes.

The sprockets are marked with 13 and 47. That is the stock gear
