Heat and spring fade have always been an issue with me and 50s. Im guessing the same spring fade on the 150s on up is less noticeable. I find myself tuning weights so that initial rpms are a bit higher but after that couple mile run the rpms are still within the powerband. 500 rpm loss is pretty pronounced on a 50 so I have done what is acceptable for my driving habits. CVT venting doesnt seem to help nor does the brand of contra.
Ive seen quite a few people who have actually isolated this and realize nothing much can be done while others misdiagnose the symptom and spend time trying to fix some other part thats not broken nut merely spring fade.
This is probably the major factor in me upgrading to a 150cc in the future.
