I've never heard of anyone using more than a 15 tooth on the XR650R. I'm sure with a 15t front and smaller rear you can achieve the gear ratio you're looking for.

it's not a matter of ratios, it's a matter of clearance. (long story) if your interested: http://forums.13x.com/showthread.php?t=100875

Sprocket Specialists has a 16T front sprocket for the 650R. I bought it and used it with my SM setup. Problem is no aftermarket 16T case savers. I made my own by copying an XR's Only 15T out of 1/4" aluminum and then belt sanding it out to fit. I suppose you could hack your stock saver or just not run one at all. There are no clearance issues at all outside of the case saver issue. Ride on.
