You can go up to a 17T front and still use the stock 102 link chain.
What would I gain from going with a 17T engine sprocket?
The stock gearing is ridiculously too low if you ride one up and weigh under 200 pounds. The engine just screams all the time when you are cruising (stock revs are about 5100 RPM at 70 MPH).
I weigh about 150 and my rpm is about 3500 at 65mph in 5th gear.
