Well, I have done all the tune up/clean up stuff and I am not that impressed. I got the variator replaced, set the valves, cleaned the fuel system, fixed the brake drag, etc. The new variator solved the rattling problem. The acceleration is better, but still anemic. Top speed on the flat is @45 Mph. The speedometer says 65. It will run up to 40 pretty well. It has a hard time making it to top speed. It's as if there is some sort of speed limiter. There is still some throttle left, but if I go to max throttle the engine bogs down. I have featherd the throttle some and made it to 47 a couple of times, but it takes some finaggaling. Would one of those high performance ignition kits help out?
Gas mileage seems to be about 76 mpg, normal driving. Is that about average? I weigh @165 lbs, so I don't think I am overloading the scooter. I would think a 150 cc bike would give better performance.
