changin my sprocket for wheelies
Could I change it out myself? How much would it cost at a local shop like barneys? Thanks.
Its too hard to slip it in 1st to get up so I wanted a tooth setup for power wheelies.

Sprocket changes are pretty easy.
Just need some basic tools.
If you mod the rear, you may end up needing a longer chain.
You may be able to drop the front a tooth, ang go up 1 or 2 in the rear and use your existing chain.
Ideally you would replace both the chain and sprockets... but what ever.
Be careful with the countershaft nut and do not foret the o-rings on the master-link.
Do it yourself.... learn how..... have fun...

If you need a new sprocket to wheelie a bike then you shouldnt be doing wheelies. Didnt you just get this bike?
Go -1 in the front and +2 in the rear. You can pretty much do standups in 4th gear with that set-up. Changing them is fairly simple.

What do you ride? Please tell me a 250 or something. Because I could get my 600 up in 3rd. On stock gearing.
