take the master link off the chain first (chain breaker or grind it off)
then pop the rear wheel off and un bolt old sprocket
then unbolt front sprocket (might have a C clip too)
then throw on the new shit, if its a newer chain it may not have a master link so a shop will have to rivet it on if you cant

best bet is to loosen your sprocket before you cut your chain

Thanks for the tips, I got it changed over, a lot simpler, if thats a word, than it seemed :D But I do have 1 more questions, well 2..
1- I ordered a wheelie kit stage 1 gearing, and I thought I was supposed to go down teeth in order to gain low end. My previous sprockets were front - 14 teeth back-43, my new ones are front-15 back -48. Now I do get a lot faster acceleration, but I was told my rpms would be 10% higher on highway, they are actually a tiny bit lower than what they were. Does this seem right?
2. Roger where in WPB u live? I just moved up to Iowa from Boca Raton.
