it would depend on whither you are riding on a mountain bike or something that wont be doing stunts or a bmx or dmr. for mountain bike it probably will not matter whither it is big or not however for bmx or dmr it would be a good idea to have a smaller one as when at skate parks eg. you where going to drop into a bowl that is quite steep if you have a big on then the chances are it is going to hit the coping (top of edge) and maybe fall off. also if you are thinking of getting a smaller sprocket you will need to get a smaller cassette but don't guess how big the cassette should be for a sprocket just take it to a bike shop and they should be able to tell you. for a smaller sprocket i would recommend a 25t to 30t,, the 25t will have to have about an 8 or 9 tooth cassette. hope all of this helps took me a while to type out anyway :P!!

How do you make your 5.5 hp 4 stroke mini bike go faster?
It'll cost about $200 but its worth the money buy a torque converter. I can guarantee it will make your bike go from 25mph to 45 to 50mph. Or cheaper you can put a sprocket with less teeth on the back. Or a front sprocket that has more teeth than your stock sprocket. This will probally give you about 10mph more than what you got. The back sprocket can cost anywhere from 10 to 25 dollars front will cost you about 15
