I'm thinking of putting a 26t rear sprocket on and a 16 or 17t on the front because I think it will give me quite a bit of speed and will the 428 chain fit or should I stay stock 22t rear and a 13 or 14 or 15 on the front and will I need the 428 chain thx again and please shoot me an answer.

I'd only go up a max of 2 or 3 teeth on the front.
It may take you 10 yards to get going...because::
When you gear up, you take off slower. There is just so much you can do with a stock motor.
The clutch mods will help.

So you recommend a 13 tooth and will I be able to keep the chain protector and do I need the 428 chain but I am shaving the head does that make a difference or should I stay 13t and how much speed will I gain?
Plz answer my questuions and thx again

I'll presume you have the 520 chain now. If you go to a 13 front you should still be able to use the skidplate.
I have no idea how much speed you'll gain.
You need to ask 95wolv or Jaster.
They know more about gearing and speed.
