Chain length will alter the performance of the chassi more and weight distribution. The longer the chain, the more the weight goes to the front of the kart and more front end. abit like moving the seat.

On a Honda cadet for instance, this will make more of a difference.

But surely with a longer chain, the more wear you will get in the links and the more power loss will happen, abit like when you have worn sprockets ect.
