If you want to make it slightly easier to get on the pipe and enjoy more instant acceleration, go larger on the rear sprocket. This would reduce your top speed.
Changes to the front sprocket would have the reverse effect. A smaller front is like downshifting (easier to get on the pipe,) and a larger front is like upshifting (more top speed).
A one tooth change in the front is equivalent to about three teeth on the rear.
51 would make it easier to be always on the pipe but maybe shift sooner.

Don't forget to mess with the powervalve adjuster too, you can shift your power a bit that way as well.
I typically run 1.5-1.75 turns in. Try adjusting yours .5 turns until you get the right feel.
I also run a JD Jet kit.
I've also heard of Husky guys drilling holes in the left side number plates since the airbox is a bit more restricted and choked up than the KTMs. That also wakes the bike up.
Glad someone else runs a 49t besides me.
PV is from full out. It stops when you turn counterclockwise so don’t worry about it falling out.
I agree with Ian, at that 1.75 (turns in) its very ridable.
Pit Row
I also switched from regular motor oil (10-40 or whatever) to bell ray 80w-85 transmission oil. That in combination with moving the shifter down one position, completely eliminated the false neutrals that happened 3-5 times every ride day, mid moto. (They sucked)
