how many teeth does the stock sprocket have? whats the benifit from the 14?..

 

[Master_Blaster]

The stock sprocket I do believe has 13 teeth.

The difference it changes when you go up a tooth is the topend speed is slightly raised but takes a little more to get to rather than going down a tooth it lowers your top end but increases your bottom end, resulting in a quicker machine but again you sacrifice one for another.

How do you guys like the 14 tooth sprocket? can you feel a noticeable difference? and dose the front end still pop up when you rip on it??

i noticed a slight difference. And i can still get it into a wheelie in 4th, then shift up through. It does pull a little better

when i put a 14T front sprocket on my blaster it pulled twice as hard as it did with a 13T sprocket an i had 20 inch flat top tires, it pulled really hard with 20 inch tires 14/40 gearing.

So I am asuming its safe to say with the 14 tooth sprocket, the gear ratio's from 1st-6th are a bit longer?? also are blaster 5spd or 6spd??

 

[flyers42091]

Yes its safe to put on, and the gears pull better. A blaster is a 6spd
