Can anyone help. Stessing about my tour

Hi guys pretty new to all this (so sorry if im sounding dumb at all), this being my 1st post.

Im on tour at the moment (on the way to russia/mongolia)

Basically im having trouble finding the chain size of my tenere xt660z can anyone help.

Other problem being in the rush to leave i couldnt find any 17" inner tubes. Im in poland at the moment (near Lublin).
Can anyone give me any advice of anything i can do if i get a puncture if im unable to find a 17" etc etc

Be greatful for any help/advice

Cheers

Ed

any inner tube will fit in an emergency, 18 " tube will be no problem.
when i go offroading i only take a front 21" tube that can be used in the rear if needed.

Chain size 520 apx. can't find how many links
110 links will prob be ok.

Late,late reply but valid for any one else reading this thread,.... if you ever get caught out for a chain in the middle of no where try any local farm supplies place...they usually have various chains that will get you on the road again..eg.used in various combine harvesters and the likes....might not be exact sizes(i.e. wider)but will let you limp to where ever you need to be...
