I reside in Las Vegas, Nevada. I ride with multiple people who ride "scooters" what I like to call a bike.
I'm creating this post, asking anyone who stunts their bike(gy6) what specifications do you use?
Currently I'm riding stock with the exception of a 72cc BBK, and missing muffler only header pipe.

If you don't care about speed and just want an extra little boost for getting the wheel up Naraku makes a gear set that's actually deeper than stock gears.

if you dont jet it you will ruin your top end eventually without properly jetting it

forgot to mention I have a genuine Kehin carb jetted 85/main 34/pilot, moved the needle up one spot for a more rich mixture.

just because it sais keihin doesnt mean it is unless you spent 55-75 dollars on one usually these 4t's and older ones come with keihin but they are clones. also moving clip up is leaning it out not enriching it
there is a thread from 1fastqmb showing which keihin is a clone and which is real.

Keihin or not, as long as the jetting is correct it'll be OK. If your plug looks white try a larger jet.
Back to the stunt stuff, you'll prob want lighter rollers or stiffer contra than normal riding since I'd imagine you will be more concerned with quick response than reasonable cruise speed. Also spend some time on the clutch and get it where you like it. I don't do stunts, but I assume the CVT stuff will need to be adjusted to what feels right for you. If you really learn what you're trying to I'm not sure if all of this will matter much since there are ppl doing stunts on stock scoots.
If you care at all about the scoot you may want to figure out some sort of frame sliders so if it goes down you don't necessarily bust all of the fairings and CVT cover or whatever.
One bad thing is that these scoots tend to bend the steering stem fairly easily in a crash so if the front hits anything you'll have to make sure the wheel is still straight with the bars. Not sure what you could do practically to help with that.

swap the front springs with some heavier duty ones or onvert them to air shocks and it will be really absorbent and help dampen the steering
