i need to get new front and rear sprocket (and i will also get a chain too) because my front sprocket has 1 tooth chipped off and my rear has 1/4th to a half of its teeth chipped off.......... since i am getting a whole new sprocket and chain kit i was considering changing my stock gearinf from 14/38 to 15/38.... but i have no clue if i should or not because i think my quad maybe lacking a bit of power cuz of the torn up stockers...... so my question is would the stock torn to hell sprockets be acause of power loss? and shuld i move up to 15/38? i have a yoshi full titanium exhaust system, hotcams stage 1 and no airbox lid.......... sprocket change yae or nae?

youre gonna loose power with a bigger front sprocket but will gain top speed.youll gain power with a smaller front sprocket but will loose top speed.i have a 13 tooth front sprocket on mine and it took off nice but ran outta revs too fast.i put my 14 tooth back on today to see how it is now.
