Question Questions about Changing sprocket sizes

Its time for a a new chain and sprockets on my 2000 SV. I was thinking of going up a couple of teeth in the rear. Is it worth it? Will it affect the length of chain i need to get? I usually ride in the bottom/midrange revs; very rarely ring it out. I dont really care about losing top end speed, but i dont want the revs to be too high while cruising down the highway..... Any info will be appreciated......
Also, was looking at this on eBay
eBay Motors: Suzuki 99-04 SV650 650 520 CHAIN SPROCKET CONVERSION (item 330030755841 end time Sep-26-06 08:40:31 PDT)
Is it a good deal? The parts any good?
