Stewart, I just installed this type of motor in my tank model. The 25 pitch chain may be a bit difficult to find master links or even additional chain on a local level. You could order this through some of the scooter websites but then you have to wait, pay for shipping and so forth. The motor shaft will be most likely metric, so either a new metric sized sprocket will be needed (9-10 tooth) unless you can turn down the output shaft of the motor. A file will work with the motor turned on but you really need to be careful not to file away too much. i had a problem getting links to fit the chains i bought off of ebay as well, i ended up getting a length of chain from Surplus Center and links and had no problems (just make sure you don't by the heavy chain or the links won't work - they are currently out of them, i called and checked...)
