It's a $15 experiment. Do it. I hate runing a 15T. Way too tall for anything but roads.

I run a 16 tooth and have no problems. Ride wheelies all day long. I think its all in your style of riding. I ride with lots of dirt bikes in a dried up sandy river bottom. We ride all out for aobut 10-15 miles at a time.

When I'm not doing that I ride at little sahara or beaver dunes in the trails and have no problems.

i dont find any difference in shifting, there is a noticable gain in torque but u do lose a bit of top end. with my mods i can beat stock 400exs when i hav the 14t sprocket on.
