my suggestion is to go from a 14 (stock) in the front to a 15 and see how that does.  I run a 15 or 16 up front and leave the back 41 (stock) alone.  Depends on what type or riding you do too.  

Not sure that gear ratio and speed mater to you, but here is a website that you might find interesting.  Gives speed ratings for sprocket sizes.

4, thx bro i'll give it a shot. We do everything from mx to Big Scrub so it needs to be all around I think a couple up front will be just what the docter ordered.

I would try 15 first and see how that does.  Without some mods, you will not stay in the powerband in the taller gears.  If you have some mods, and possible some port work you will be able to pull the taller gears.  Also makes a difference what tires you run, I run 20's or 22's, trail tires and paddles.
