i think it time for a tune up the scooter is a month old and has 1500 km on it and ive changed the oil 3 times already, but i think my problem started when i added an octane boost to the fuel. can that cause it to have poor acceleration, i know i need to change the gear oil but on top of that its fairly new and well tooken care of, im just annoyed at how long it takes to get to top speed

did you rejet for the new air filter
yes octane booster could be the cause of it your fuel is now doesnt have the same energy as before
unless you got a real high compresion build there is no need for it
hell even on the 2 strokes i know a lot of guys that are running kits and still running cheap gas without issues
