how many mph would i gain if i put a 14 tooth front sproket on, and how much low end speed would i loose. i have a full pipe jet kit k&n air filter no air box lid and 20 inch rear tires. would i be better off getting a 42 tooth rear instead. i want more top end but i dont want to loose my exceleration. i need to replace both sprockets and the chain anyway so eaither way im buying new ones. please help me
thanks

you cant mix n match so you gain speed but not power, your going to have to sacrifice one when you gain the other by gearing changes. a bump up on the sprocket adds maybe 4 mph to the top speed. you will have a little noticable loss in power though.

 

RMATV.com has a closeout special on titax front sprokets, they are 9.99, i picked up a 12 tooth just to try it out.

 

yea, fronts are alot cheaper too. if you try to keep messing around and buying new rears, youll be out of alot of money, those run i think 42 bucks.
