Sprocket change

I was thinking about changing my sprockets to get a little more top end speed. Anyone have any suggestions on what sizes to go with. And how many teeth are they stock.

The base model gearing is 14-42, what mods do you have? tire size? type of riding?

with 14-42 gearing on 20in tires i could bang the rev limiter in 5th, i;d go 15 up front if you are looking for more top end, or 22in tires but they will be a bit heavier, right now i run 13-42 with 22' paddles

Are you running 300 ft with that set up? what gear do you start in?

Are you running 300 ft with that set up? what gear do you start in?

sorry i missed this, yup 300ft, launch in 2nd with high rpms. i think i might be able to go up a size when i get my motor done back to stock 14-42 and i wont have to grab 4th gear. just launch in 2nd grab 3rd and done.
