Hey I was just curious if a 16tooth front sprocket would fit with no problems. Thanks!

it fits but you cant use your case saver with the 16 tooth on.

You can use a case saver with the 16T if you grind it down a little bit. I'm running one with a Nac's case saver.

i have a 15 tooth front and i tried grinding it down as much as i could and it still touched a bit so i just cut it off. I'm putting the old sprocket on and i bought a new case saver i don't want the chain to snap and screw something up.

I run a 16t front with a pro-design case saver and the factory gaurd.

Probably because yours is a 2007 which comes with a factory 14T front and a smaller case saver designed for it. The aftermarket case saver should be able to accommodate up to a 16T front with some grinding like I am running ;) The 15T should bolt right up with no grinding using the aftermarket case saver.

I ditched the guard a long time ago so I wouldn't know....but if Ikilla 2 is running it, then there ya go.

i can still do some wheelies take a lil more effort. why dont u go bigger on the rear sprocket. three in the back=1 in the front but it will cost u more

You would actually go smaller in the rear to have the same affect as going up in the front.
