If your don't want to change the chain and you still wanna ride the streets I'd say just go -1 or 2, you'll notice the difference I promise.

What are you wanting from your bike?

To rip wheelies without hte clutch?

To do slow wheelies?

To have parts that you can say "look at my stunt parts"????


If you can't rock under 20mph steady, then forget sprockets, keep what you got, and GO PRACTICE.

If your chasing rev limiter, sprockets will hurt you. These bikes 'snap' enough stock for BP wheelies at under 30mph

But if your rocking smooth wheelies under 30mph, then ya, go ahead and re-gear. If not, forget about it!
