I want to switch my stock pulley to a chrome pulley. I've been shopping in the market for it and I do see a lot of chromed ones with 66 teeth and 70 teeth pulley.

It's in your owners manual under "Specifications - sprocket teeth". An alternative to a high dollar chrome pully is a chrome pully cover. I have had one on my '92 FXD for 18 years, still looks good, and was only $50 (then).
