Guys, I am going to be ordering new front and rear sprockets for my EX. What size should I go with. My mods are listed below. My rear tires are 18". I was thinking 16/37. Will this be good enough or shoud I go with something else. Oh and what brand should I buy? Thanks

well if you want close to stock gearing, then 16/36 is pretty close i think. thats what doug eichner ran on his world championship 440 with 18" holeshot mx's. i suggest replacing your chain as well. and get Sidewinder chain and sprockets if you have the money, and get the surivor or stainless series. they might have titanium by now, and those could be great as well

stock rear is 38, and you are correct at 15 for the front

the sidewinder sprockets are spendy. the rears are around $60, and the chain is spendy, like $100 probably, or more, and the fronts are like 20 i think, so 180-200, but im not sure

I've got a 16 in the front and the stock 38 in the rear. But i've been wondering what the 36 in the rear would be like. I want to try that as well. I would use Sunstar sprockets and a D.I.D. Xring chain.
