ok i am wondering if i should get new sprockets because i got a new swingarm with chain. whenever i ride the bike it sounds like the chain is skipping over some of the teeth on the front sprocket. i looked at an aftermarket sprocket and they have triangle teeth, my bike has almost square. well its obvious i need a new front. i have a pipe and filter and would it be a good idea to go 1 tooth up on the front because i dont have any acceleration. thanks for your help in advance.

i have a 16 tooth front sprocket and it works good but i think a 15 would be better i think 16 is too much

sounds like you need a chain roller. if u get a bigger front sprocket it's going to give u more top end not bottom. you want a bigger back sprocket, even tho u don't need it if u don't hav a BBK.

well i have a chain roller, and the way i figured it out is, supercross guys run big rear sprockets for more acceleration. i think 2 rear teeth equals 1 front tooth. and my front sprocket is shot so i was gonna get a new one, and while i was at it i was gonna add another tooth

i think they are the same price so may as well go one bigger!
