About a week ago i sold my 49cc lets 2 in exchange i bought a Yamaha Aerox pre modded by the owner.
It has a 70cc big bore kit Leo vince Exaust Water cooled with electric water pump Racing clutch Digital rpm metre and engine temperature manual choke Carb size, not sure how to check Pod Filter
Seeing as i dont know much about performance parts. I just have a couple of questions
Whats a safe top cruising speed that will keep the engine in good condition?
Is it normal for me to hit 8000rpm before i reach 50kmph?
I was told that when i accelerate i should rev the engine to a higher rpm to get it to hit power band rather than just opening the throttle slowly, is this true?
Whats a safe engine running tempreture/rpm?
what other performance parts can i add ?

Scooters use a CVT, which is designed to allow the engine to remain in the peak powerband the entire time while accelerating, and thus giving you optimal performance from an engine w/ a narrow powerband. You can accelerate however you like though.
Also, since it's a CVT, properly tuned and with enough throttle, it should be in the same RPM regardless of whether you're going 20kmph or 50kmph

well we would need to know what crank was in there before we say what the safe rpm is if its an oem crank try to keep it at 9 grand they hold up for short runs over that but tend to fail on long runs over 9 grand
temps on my converted zuma stayed below 180 f
as for if 8 grand is normal well we would have to know what kit and what pipe it has on it but if its a set up where power is in the 8 to 9 grand range then that is where you will spend most of your time

Well its a stock 50cc crank, so i assume thats OEM. And yeah i can even ride 60kmph and its in the 8-9 thousand range.
Last question, what would be the maximum safe riding speed that will give long engine life
Edit: Just talked to the owner before me and he gave me a list of all the mods
Have had this on a private road doing 116kph just fine, the acceleration is a surprise and is not for learning on.

Stock cranks are often said to be best suited to 10,000RPM or 10,500RPM max. Your racing crank should be fine above that, but to what point I'm not totally sure. Since you say it's a mid-race setup, I would think you'll be just fine with whatever RPM the rest of the setup cares for.
