I've been running a 17T for over a year now, and compared with the 19T 
that was stock on my '00 ST, I really like it. It made all but the 
tightest hairpins 2nd gear corners, and certainly made getting away 
from a stop a lot easier on the clutch. However, I did notice a 
significant decrease in mileage, from ~45 MPG to ~41 MPG.

This week I'm going to switch to an 18T sprocket. I hope that I get 
some of the mileage back, while still enjoying relatively easy starts 
and tight corners in second gear.
