Installing a 14 tooth Front sprocket

[MITrail400EX]

Hey everyone. When/ if I decide to install a 14 tooth front sprocket, will I have to get a shorter chain, or just adjust my stock one? I understand that the 14 tooth is slightly smaller in diameter in comparison to the 15 tooth stocker, but I'm not sure how much of a difference there will be. Please help! Thanks.

i just installed one on my 400, all i had to do is make the chain tighter, it should be ok

All you need to do is tighten your chain after installing the 14 tooth sprocket. I put a 14 tooth on my 400 a few weeks ago but found out that all my power was low-mid and not much top end. So I switched back to the stock 15 tooth.

Low-mid power is exactly what I am wanting. I am a big boy, so I need all the help I can get when it come to getting my big butt rolling.

Hey I am not replying to your question, i saw the pic next to your name and location, and just wanted to say hey, We saw you last weekend in the sand area near St. Helen while we were riding, we had the Yellow 400's. Just wanted to say hey.

I put the 14t on when I got a new chain and sprockets. gears top out a lot quicker, and its a lot harder to do 5th gear wheelies. I am gonna put my 15 back on some day, for now I am to lazy...:blah:
