Default banshee sprockets

I have an 03' banshee w/ toomey T-5's rejetted and K & N air Filter and i'm have the 8 paddle haulers and i beat everyone out of the hole but i need more in third gear racing up comp. so i was thinking a different size sprocket would help me out, because i didn't want to get into any heavey engine work yet, but i need it to be faster in third gear, or be able to go up in fourth, so what would u guys suggest???? what size sprocket if it would help me out....

drop your front sprocket by one tooth.... that way you have more bottom end and you will loose some on the top end.

Well, if you are only interested in Comp hill you would want to fine tune for that.

If you are revving out in 3rd but can't pull 4th strong you may want to drop a tooth on the front. If you want to keep it in 3rd with more speed maybe add a tooth to the front sprocket.

Overall, I would say that you want to drop 1 tooth on the front - that will tighten up the gear spacing making it easier to find just the right gear you need.
