Front sprocket question

[wingerdor]

I just bought a DR200 as a Training bike for the BRC on pavement. It has a 16 tooth sprocket on the front. The guy gave me the stock 15. Should I swap it back, do I need to do anything else? Will the 16 cut the wheelie potential from a popped clutch a bit?
Thanks!

It's a 200.... What wheelie potential?

You saw how much fun I was having on Komaki's KLX250 supermoto and just had to get one huh?

You've obviously never seen one these in the hands of a beginner! LOL It did look like a lot of fun!

I made it my daily rider.
It's only a matter of time before I get a ticket for having too much fun on a public way.
At least I'll never get a ticket for doing 60 in a 25... In boston...

i had a dr200, i'm kind of sad i sold it. i also wasn't aware the wheelie potential

Off topic: 4t + small dirt bike = (wheelie + fun) potential

<- loved doing 2nd gear wheelies on an xr200r

sit towards the back of the seat, start with rpm's low, slight bounce, pull on bars, crank the throttle, and up she goes!

unless you're wanting to cross the US on 5 gallons of gas... I can't see putting a bigger front sprocket on a small cc bike.

Renee's 250cc is way better with one smaller than stock
