so my chain was sagging like a granny so i decided to cut out 1 link found out the hard way it comes off by 2 now its too short
it only has like a mili meter of slack my buddy keeps telling me to drive it to stretch it, mind u if it will strech i do not care, but if its going to ruin my sprockets ill just buy a new chain, as i cant replace my sprockets cause the genious i bought it from welded the hubs on, also what size of chain does a 1981 185s use how many links and what # chain

Catch me if you can
Not only is it going to kill your sprockets, it's going to kill your axle bearings or (god forbid) your counter shaft bearing. Is the chain worn? Time for a new one? If you're not going to change the chain, you can get those half-links and install that for a tad more length. It might get you right where you need to be.
