I see a lot of people putting upgrade parts on their scoots. I'm really loving my 150 and was wondering what, if any, upgrades you guys recommend? And with the upgrades you recommend what difference would they make?

First off I'd have to say the spark plug Go with NGK(sorry can't remember part number)

I'd also check out Dr pulley variator slides. Those seem to let it get more revs and higher top speed.

Then you can even get a hotter coil pack, polished stainless exhaust glass pack kits.

I've been wondering about the variator slides. I get up to around 50 and I feel like i'm pushing about as hard as I want to go. As far as spark plugs, i'm there with ya, i'm changing that thing asap.

With the slides, do i go heavier for higher top speed? My understanding, limited I admit, is that's the way it works.

Ignition parts cdi , coil . spark plug sometimes will improve start up . Depending on the timing curve of a cdi it may change smoothness of idle . As for looking to tune the cvt , there are a few factors . Weight of rider , terrain then what are you looking for more top end or off the line ? larger diameter variator increases your gear ratio . Stock 150cc variators are 107mm diameter , the performance ones are 115mm . If your heavy you want lighter weights , if your a skinny mini you can go heaver .

It doesn't have much trouble idling or starting. I'll probably go ahead and start upgrading that stuff though, because I just like doing it.

Ok, I want more top end. Off the line doesn't make much difference where I am. I'm about 195lbs. So I guess I need to get the performance variator and lighter sliders? Any recommendation on which ones and what size to start with?

[tvnacman]

when you open your variator you will have to weigh your stock weights then go up in weight .

Ok, I will do that. I appreciate your help, tvn.

Will do! If nothing else, I'm sure they are more durable then the stock set. Do you sell sliders as well? if so i'll get them from you as well.

Break the engine in and you will gain some performance.

[sumdawgtwigg]

Indeed.

[tvnacman]
