There will be about 2inches gap with a 14:42 sprocket setup. space is taken up mainly by the exhaust down pipes.

Well like I said the ZCars hayabusa minis, loads of them run with about 2 inches clearance seems to work for them, although they do use a 630 chain as far as I'm aware.

The exhaust header pipes on my zzr1100 run in front of the engine mounts makes them stick out quite a bit, I'm assuming the ZX10 is similiar, bar getting a custom exhaust made up, don't know what you could do about that to give you more room

If you can keep the weight down to the 350kg area it will absolutely fly, I'm very interested in how it turns out

Cheers
David

would you really need to go down as far as a 39 for the back? could you not maybe try 15/42

Also speak to Talon engineering for bespoke sprockets. They supply all mine for my race bike and have a very quick turn around.
