14 tooth or 16 tooth countershaft sprocket???

[ill_lil_romey]

which would you recommend?

[Pappy]

14 tooth for faster acceleration and more bottom and mid range pull


16 tooth will give you more top end

I would recommend staying with a 14 or 15t front, unless u have a tourquey motor. A 16 will take alot more fanning of the clutch if u are running a stock motor

depends on your mods and the tracks that you ride. i ride tight SX dirtbike tracks so i got a 14 tooth and its amazing. the pull is much harder and the acceleration is much improved. there is a noticable top gain loss though. when i run 18inch tires im going to switch back to my stock 15 tooth caus etheres tires will lower the gearing..so it depends

I am running stock gears in my 2000 400ex
i have following mods
k+n filter
stage 2 jetting
air box lid removed w/k+n filter gaurd on
Pro Circuit T4 exhaust

i feel my first 3 gears are kinda short on my bike and im looking for a bit more top speed.I Feel i have enought power now to lengthen gears but which sprocket should i change and why?


BTW:Im looking to make this into a responsive top end oreiented reliable 4-stroke.I plan on adding a cam rockers/valve job/polishing....etc
