Default Sprocket HELP

Im getting new chain and sprockets. Tell me what you all have and your opinon. Im looking to go 15 in the front and 45 in the back. That will take me from 2.63 ratio to 3.00 ratio. Not sure what chain to get either. I guess an O ring. Also looking for good deals.
I know I'll loose top end, but Im not too worried bout that. Trying to get my wheelies a lil better.
PLEASE HELP MEEEEE

if you run a 15/45 and go with a 520 conversion that should be a very nice setup i would go with a did gold chain they cost a little more but u get what u pay for

Hey check out these sprockets.....they look pretty neat and may have the benefit of aluminum with the longevity of steel.

Thanks for the sites. Any other inputs? I was talking to one person and they said that the bike would be realy hard to keep on two wheels with the 3.00 ratio, because of the torque of the 929. They went 15/44 and said that was nice. I wana stunt more, but also love to RIDE.

are you replacing the chain and sprockets because you have to or because you want to gear it ? ive found that the 929 can wheelie just fine without having to gear it, its all about user control. if you dont have to replace the parts save your money and just get out there and practice . if you do have to replace id say go with a -1/+2 that is always a very good starting point

No I GOTA change my chain and sprockets. So since i need to I wana upgrade myself. Pracice does help...but so do bigger sprockets. But I think Im gona go -1/+2. Getting a power commander in the future and gona tweak sum more later. Doing it all myself. We'll, with the help of my friends lift & jack. Still looking into prices. Not sure which sprockets and chain to get. I want to get the "almost" nicest brand. LOL. Looking at AFM, D.I.D, EK. But I will find a good deal, Im a thrifty shoppa.
