Have you messed around with the gearing yet?

Faster acceleration or higher top speed can be expected - but not both! (& not by much) Wink

Hi Allan,

From what I can remember, the kit was new 70cc cylinder head & piston. Not Sure if needed rejetting.

I have to ask the question, why?

Not because I can't appreciate the fact its dog slow, but:

1 Imagine that the reason your on a 50 is that your 16 and surely when you turn 17 you will off load for something else.

2 Your spending money turning something crap into something, (in my humble and worthless opinion) only slightly less crap

3 If you do it properly and re register it your taking it out of the 16 market place.

4 If your not re registering it you can only legally sell it on as a 50.

5 Found this on the web - if you havn't been put off by my ramblings: http://aerox_tuning.webs.com/cylinderkits.html

If, your not 16 and not limited to 50cc, get rid of it and get something else, now.

Sorry if this sounds negative. was suposed to help.
