Im in the middle of doing my 520 conversion on an 02 R1 and I'm wondering if there is a way to calculate how many links I will need on the new chain. I have changed my gearing to 15/43 from 16/43

just measure the chain against the old one you took off. the same length will be fine and you will adjust it accordingly at the rear tire.

^ yes. You can use the stock link length when you drop 1 tooth in front.
