Take off the sprocket guard and take the sprocket loose. You should be able to get it out and the new one in with out taking the chain off. If it is a different size you might need to take out links or add linkes to your chain. Take it all the way loose at the ajuster so you have some give when switching the sprockets.

im dropping 1 tooth, so a 14t sprocket, ill do what you said, if i need to take the chain off i have the tools.

Just loosen up the chain with the bolts in the rear of your swingarm. Take off the guard/s and sprocket. Re-adjust everything to fit proprerly.
