yeah as above take it to your lhs as it has to be the right circumference and right number of teeth otherwise the mesh will be wrong and its will shred to pieces every time.

you could still run it as it is by taking that gear off and having it one geared but it would be a little pointless.

make sure you gap them properly when assemble the new ones or you will rip em apart again, i normally use a couple rizzla, put inbetween the gears press together line it all up then tighten engine mounts, it just about gives you the right setting
