does a 12 tooth sprocket make the engine work harder or easier where i ride you have to keep my warrior in second gear to pull the hills so if it wont hurt the motor i am going to try a 12 tooth thanks for the help or if you have 12 tooth on yours tell me how it proforms

 

When you drop teeth in the front it puts less strain on the motor. Thats why it seems as though you have more torque. You will be able to take hills in a higher gear, or will have more power in the gear you are already in up the hill.

 

regardless of the sprocket size the motor can put out a certian amount of power. By reducing the size of the front sprocket it won't give your bike more power, all it does is change the way the power is transfered to the rear wheels, ie more bottom or top end.
