I have re-geared my 1999 Yamaha Warrior 350 by subtracting 1 tooth from the front sprocket and adding 3 to rear. To gain some top-end without losing too much on bottom should change front?

To regain some of the bottom-end power you lost by changing your sprockets, you can make the following change to the front sprocket:

Add 2 teeth to the front sprocket.

This will effectively "gear down" the bike, making it easier to accelerate from a stop and giving you more low-end torque. However, it will also reduce your top-end speed slightly.

Ultimately, the best sprocket configuration for your bike will depend on your riding style and preferences. If you're looking for the best of both worlds, you may want to consider a compromise, such as adding only one tooth to the front sprocket.
