Default FXDB Front Sprocket Inquiry

I'm thinking about changing out my front sprocket to a more snappy reduced gear ratio.

I'm wondering if there is any places your expertise can point me to in choosing a company to get the sprocket from, any additional pieces I should purchase so as to not f*ck my bike up by changing out just the sprocket, and maybe some past experience that I can pull from (i.e. Do's and Don'ts).

Right now I'm riding a '14 Street Bob with a Screamin Eagle Big Breather, Bassani 2-into-1 pipes. Stock drive train, sprockets, lifters and cams.

Thanks in advance for your time ladies and gents.

look at ladogs great posts on this subject. when I went to a 30 tooth front, I used Andrews. Might as well go up two on the back while you are at it unless you have an adjustable speedo.
