Hi Chuxsta, when I did this, it was standard+ 4 links, but if you've got a hugger fitted be careful cos the tyre can rub under full adjustment.

You can still use the standard length chain with a +2 on the rear. But remember the adjustment markers will be well out, as the wheel will be almost as far forward as it will go in the swingarm.
