1986 fxrs
the previous owner changed it to chain drive(it's chain primary and chain secondary now).I'd like to change it back and need info on what and where to find the proper parts thanks.

For the front pulley, use `94 and later configuration parts. Pulley, lockplate, nut, bolts, spacer, quad seal and oil seal.
The earlier pulley setups had a lot of problems with coming loose.
Unless you can find pulleys that look unused, I would buy new parts. New pulleys and belt will go 100k miles.

86 is bastard stuff...still has a tapered mainshaft....most of the newer parts will not fit...which may be why it got converted to chain...the aftermarket has totally ignored the early 5 speeds. You can have your trans rebuilt with a splined shaft... so newer parts will fit, or check with supermax...they manufacture belt drive pulleys for the older stuff.
