I'm looking at buying some new sprockets and was wondering around what gearing I should run. I want more bottom end because where I ride I can hardly get out of 4th except when i'm at friends houses. I don't want to lose all of my top end but would not mind losing a little. Any suggestions on gearing for this? Thanks.

I'd just drop your front sprocket to a 14 tooth.

All depends on how much you want to spend. JT Sprockets, renthal, sprocket specialist, and sunstar all make sprockets. I buy sunstar or JT because they are cheap and seem to hold up fairly well.

I just bought the $7 one from Rocky Mountain ATV, seems to be holding up fine.
