Hi Ive just orderd up a 15 tooth sprocket for my dtr 125 and was wondering does one tooth less on the front sprocket make much difference? i was hoping it will wheelie easy with one tooth less?
RIGHT. FIRSTLLY. I HOPE YOU HAVENT JUST GOT OUT A GRINDER AND GROUND A TOOTH OFF!
Just let me tell you somthing my mate did this and let me say 'he is a complete idiot when it comes to bikes!! he said it would work and i said it woundnt, and guess what it didnt work..... no differance at all!!!
So mate i suggest you go and buy a new sproket without the ground out tooth, ebay is the best bet ive seen one for about £26 .
^^^lol, your harsssse. And to the question, yeah it will make a difference - going one tooth lower on the front roughly equates to 4 and a half on the rear...it will be easier to wheelie.

Have you checked the compression at all????? quite an easy job, if you dont know how jus ask me. i dont mind MATE!
Good luck MATE!!
what the fcuk has this got to do with his question about a sproket??? scotishpetey get on with your life son!!! get a bird and your mind might stop thinking about compression... and if you have got a bird... have you checked her compression??? let me guess you put your finger in her hole and kick her to see if it comes out??? then stick lollie pop sticks in her mouth and kick her to see if it breaks... your a fcuking joker
1 off the front or put 3 on the back, this will allow you to wheelie better although id rather put 3 on the back as id rather have bigger than smaller as doesnt wear down as quickly too
lowering the ratio's will just make it more revvy.. putting the ratio's up will make less revvy so you wont have to be constanly changing gear.. you'd be able to sit in 1st/2nd for longer too..
