    Changing Teeth on Sprockets

    I'm thinking about changing the number of teeth on one
    my sprockets. I want a little more top end speed. Are there any rules of thumb
    about how much to go for? Is one tooth in the front enough?

    One tooth depending on how many the stocker has will result in about a 7% change in gearing. I'ts about all you will be able to go without hurting acceleration. Anymore than that will likely hurt top speed as well.
