New Chain & Sprockets - Optimum Gearing?

Hi folks,

I know this subject has come up many times before, but my searches through previous posts has not really found the answer I need.

I am just about to change my chain & sprockets on a carb model 900ss, and am perplexed about what combination to go for.

Gearing at the moment is standard, but what is the optimum combination of front and rear for the road to give better acceleration and less lumpy progress through traffic

If I change the front from a 15 to a 14 tooth, do I leave the rear as standard or increase to say a 39 or 40 tooth?

Also, at what point would I need to increase the chain length from 96 to 98

All help / opinions appreciated.

Thx
Crash
