Any other ideas on making it faster. Like I said I've got springs coming and they were able to change the order to 1k torque and 1.5 clutch springs. I think that will be a better combo for my set up. I've decided to do the 50mm kit this winter, very excited bout that.. That 50MM will do it, i would just look forward to that. but i would be looking at a performance clutch if i were you. 1.5K springs are going to get that puppy hot. what kind of traffic are you in? stop and go? get a little tach for it. the $20 ones on ebay work, they have an hour counter too. they are slow and read revs from 15-20 seconds ago but still very helpfull for setting up weights, idle, mix, etc. but the best way to make it go faster... put it in a pickup truck and go for a ride on the interstate! :disco: faster springs = more slip, more heat, more wear. but on the good side it will fall you of gear at a higher speed allowing you to coast down a bit more. |

I don't have too many stoplights on my commute so I don't think it will get too hot. You're right though I'll need to get a better clutch sometime.

Went out on a ride tonight, gps showed 44mph tucked. thats about what they do. even with my big bore im doing the same but i get there much faster. maybe it will change once it gets broke in and/or i get a head with a larger chamber. that high compression is limit my revs i think. cant break 8800 revs right now. at 39mm i did up to 11k. got 9900 to 10300 all the time. |

some girl snickered at me when i picked up my 6'2" friend to take him and his gas can to his truck. lucky for me she walked away from the gas station a couple minutes before we left. i snuck up right behind her and BLASTED her snotty ass. she jumped like 3 feet! about 400lbs on the scooter and pulling 30 uphill. i call that good, not laughable. __________________________________________ get a $10 airhorn kit at harbor freight. or an even louder one. they have a few choices. i want the dukes of hazzard horn! the relay is installed to the terminals the oem horn was. one of the legs goes to ground. the other leg goes to the - side of compressor. put a 15A fuse and holder from the + batt to the positive compresor tab. i had to put the comp under floor board on left side next to battery. cable tied to the frame. run hose from comp to the horns and enjoy! took a couple hours. lots of little steps. and panels to be removed. if you dont use a fuse and wire straight to the battery i will kick your ass! horn is a safety device. install it safely. and you MUST use the relay or you will fry your horn switch, (i could get into the physics of it, but i wont) the relay should switch ground not power. and you MUST NOT use the scooters existing wiring for it other than ti activate your relay. the comp draws more current than the scooters main fuse is rated for. if you have any questions, ASK!   looks like i actually took my power from the batt side of the start solenoid rather than straight from the batt. same difference, just liked the post and nut on the solenoid more than battery.  comp tied to siderail  the oem horn had two small plates or brackets stacked together. perhaps they werent stron enough on thier own, so i had two mounting brakets for airhorns once i removed the oem horn.  relay hooked to existing horn wiring    you can see the hoses. i was able to run one hose down each side of the front panels. the closer you tee it off to the compressor the more air flow to horns. i did have to buy more hose at the hardware store.  i used tape to attach the horns to the reeds. since they piont down i dont want them falling and glue is to permanent. |

I put the new clutch springs in today! It seems quicker off the line but I think I lost some top end. I also checked the plug and went down to an 85 main.......still to rich. The only other main I have is an 80. Is that too close to the stock 78 which was too lean?

Maybe, maybe not. It is still richer than the stock. I think mine is going to end up at a 90 with the bbk. Last night it ran like crap in the cool weather. So just a touch lean.

OK....so i put a 1k torqe spring and 1.5k clutch springs on and I lost about 5mph. It also seems when I'm riding it gets hot and does not rev before taking off. It just takes off real slow. Any ideas?? I think I may need to junk the stock clutch and get a better one.

I put new sliders in a couple weeks ago (5G) They were too light and revved way to high, so I put half 5g sliders and half factory round rollers. It worked really good and was getting 44mph on the flats until I put the springs in. I did notice when I put the variator back in that the plastic guides on the cover were crumbling. I just put on the blue cdi in today and that helped over the orange one. It is still lagging off the bottom end.
