I have a 50cc Vip Future Champion Peace Sport and can't get it above 30mph? Can somebody help me with location on a governor or restrictors to push another 5-10mph out of my scoot.

Some of those have limiters in the CDI modules so they can pass muster at the DMV in a particular state. Try ordering an orange CDI module for your bike from one of our banner vendors at the top of the site and see if that makes a difference. Rich

Welcome to the forum, drmudd56. I bought this same scoot new in 2008. It did 42 mph out of the box with no mods. Obviously, this one had no restrictions. It pulls over 8000 rpm on the road. How high does your tach read at your top speed? Can you get the engine to rev higher on the center stand? I think your problem is either in the variator or the carb (air/fuel mixture). I installed an unrestricted CDI on mine, but I didn't notice any real difference in performance. Give us some more info and we should be able to pull some more mphs out of this puppy.

I appreciate the response. I have a 2011 Vip Future Champion that does 6000 on the tach and can't get any higher. I took the hose off the air box from the carb but kept the end on the carb. I took the washer out of the variator. What else can I do?

I would play with different variator weights and see if you can move the power band up...

I took the washer out of the variator. What else can I do? If 6000 rpm is the max on the centerstand, then it sounds like you have a restricted CDI. For reference, I have 6.5 gram rollers in my variator but the weights in the variator will not limit the engine rpms while on the centerstand. My engine can hit 9000 rpm and more which is above redline. I would keep all plumbing to the airbox and carb stock until you find out what's going on. |

Rich, Well guess what!! We must ALL be SCOOTER SNOBS do not see any HARLEYS on here(HEHE). Drmudd56, Cruiser is on the right track it appears you have a REV-LIMITED CDI that will not let it rev higher than 6 grand. Also check your Variator Weights they may be to heavy which will not allow your RPMS to rise. When you check your weights Mark the Variator to see high high the belt is moving up the Variator I bet it is only going up 3/4 of the way up. You want it to move up AT LEAST 1/4 from the edge of the Variator and better yet 1/8 from the edge. Alleyoop  Alleyoop |
