Go to a 16 tooth front and a 42 tooth rear. That will wake things up.
If you like views of the lovely blue sky and puffy white clouds, try a 16 front and a 43 rear.

Improve the acceleration to the point that it will try to tear your arms off.
Your speedometer will be off unless you install a Speedohealer.

IMO Dont touch the sprokets until you have ridden the bike for awhile. It is one of the cheapest ways to go faster, which is something you really shouldnt be doing at the moment.
Learn the bike, and in a few months re ask this question especially if you intend to stay on a stock wheelbase.

it is a common misconception that changing the sprockets makes you faster it makes the bike rev to a higher rpm at a lower speed which means you fell the power earlier
