No kidding, just make sure when you change out that sprocket you don't break the spacer on the inside of the nut. I used an air impact and I guess I shouldn't have and tore that baby in half. It was hard to find, but for some reason ACE Hardware had the exact one lol.. .56 Cents. Dealership wanted 24.99  :mad:

they had the thing that goes between the nut and the sprocket? with the tabs?

I heard that putting the 15 tooth up front can cause you to burn the clutch up if you don't have enough power...  This kinda hurt my feelings seeing how I had just ordered one....  Anyhow, I mostly drag race 300' dirt (tacky clay) and I thought it would help me with wheel spin and keeping me in the rpm range where my rappy makes the most power...  I don't want to tear up my clutch, but I really want to try this sprocket...  Any suggestions?

I ran a 15t on my rappy when I had just my intake and fuel controller.  And I'm riding above 9000ft so my HP level is way down compared to most. 

Drags surely will inflict more stress on a clutch, but I think you'll be just fine.

I have trouble spinning on hill climbs. Is it because of my half worn Razr's or would the 15t Help?

Maybe....

I run razrs and 15T for trails and gravel climbs.  IMO Razrs aren't all that with gravel, and especially if there's hard pack under the gravel.  The 15T will apply your torq better, but I'm not sure it's just a gearing issue.  My GNCCs are far better for overall traction regardless of gearing.

I have the 15t on right now with the IRAZRs and i think i am gonna go back to the 14t! She wont bring the front end up in 5th anymore! Maybe shes just getting tired. Ive only had the piston in for 1 summer. Could she already be wearing down? Or should i go back to the 14t?

did you have problems before?


Any chance its due to tread loss on the tires?

what do you think about a 15t at sand mountain NV? I'm a big guy,the mountain is pretty steep,and my Rappy has only a K&N with uncorked stock muffler.Even with the tq of the rappy will it be enough? I put a 13t on it for now but not sure if i should go 15 instead. any thoughts would help. thx.

For sand at that altitude you need your stock gearing or a 13T.  When your full three modded stay with stock.  Allot will also depend on your paddle selection too.  I run 22x11x8 7 paddle haulers with an intake/PCIII/and a Phoenix SA all with the 14T and I was riding at about 9000ft.

Hope this helps.
