I can't tell you. Nobody can. You must "tune" the carb.

Ok guess I'm in for a bother long trial and error lesson. Can I just buy a better carb with better jets. If so we're ND what should I be looking for. I'm looking for better acceleration and no bogging at 45 to 50

There are NO pre tuned carbs.

You can buy a carb that may work but it wont be "tuned" meaning that it will probably run rich or lean.

Not a whole lot of difference. Save your money. If you were going all out on a full race set up then yeah. but just putting in a BBK a regular carb will do just fine. But you do need to tune it.

In the ebay link you posted the small jet is the main. The bigger one is the idle, or slow or pilot jet.

Scooter ran fine all day. I drive it to work. When i get off work. bike would not start. Exhaust valves were tight after I just adjusted them earlier today. So i adjusted valves still no stRt. Now scooter is stranded at job. It turns over but won't start or idle. Should I have to adjust valves everyday? It seems to run for a day or 2 then the turnover no start symptoms occur. Why do I keep braking down every other day? Last thing it would not turn over with the electric start only with the kick. But after 20 mins of riding the electric start may work but it's a little slow on starting and it's not reliable. Oriellys said it had a bad battery I'm going to autozone in the morning to double check. If so I'm headed to the shop to get a replacement batt

You should probably go with a 40 pilot. Don't worry about the main jet. You can get one at scrappydogscooters.com

Went to worknext day adjusted exhaust valve charged battery with trickle charger. And kicked it off. However I have to kick scooter very hard to start it multiple times. Otw home it would not go over 15mph again. I'm going to Adjust the valves too. Lastly the diaphram n the carb was missing a screw so I replaced it with a regular screw. But it didn't really fit I forced it but it seems to be on snug. I tighten it when I got home after it ran 15mph the whole way
