Definately going to go that route, i can fiberglass a new dash panel to custom fit it, any guesses on a fuel gauge or should i just hack my old one into the new dash?

I'm really interested in how all this pans out. I am new to the world scooters but I've been in the mechanical and electrical fields all my life. I got a wild hair last night and pulled the CVT cover off my 150 with 300 miles on it. I found my factory rollers are 17grams. I guess that explains why at 30mph I feel like I am shifting from 3rd to 5th. I want to go with maybe 15gram sliders because I need to keep my current top end but the bogging at 30 to 45 is killing me. Also for the tire pressure i got my scoot dead on verified by GPS, google maps and the road sign radar by uping my front tire pressure from the factory 25psi stamped on the data plate to 30 psi. Tire is rated to 36psi.

Well for the end result it was something to do with the original variator. I put the prodigy variator in with the same 12g sliders and acceleration is great and top end is unaffected. I had put a uni filter on with a 120 main jet, stock was 108, ended up running way rich in the middle power band so i put a 115 in and everything runs really nice now. The 15/37 gears are at a shop be pressed on right now and the a9 cam will go in maybe next week once i hit 800 miles(same time as I do the valves adjustment).

That is very cool! you are going to like the 15/37 gears once the motor gets the weight moving you will feel the difference and your speedo will start to climb nicely.
