Thank you so much. Rejetting to 85 for now and seems to offer the best acceleration which is the primary need around town. BBK next step. Have 47mm ready to go however was told it would be best to leave stock until he gets a little more confident and the bike is broken in a little. Scoots are new to me, my ride is a bored out vl1500 but my son doesn't want to get a license so the 50 is his limit for now.

Update I pulled stock carb apart and found it has a 75 main jet. What confused me most is no matter what we do it still seems to run best (top end anyway) at stock settings with the air box. Cone air filter seems to rob power no matter jet size. No restriction in exhaust manifold. Only two places I can figure it's getting held up. Stock exhaust outlet is much smaller than inlet. And the inner diameter of the intake manifold is 1mm smaller than the current carb. Any thoughts.

Just bought my son a 2017 taotao CY50 and after breakin we started doing some mods. This thing was so lean stock that removing the air box snorkel made it bog out and die under any load whatsoever. So new carb was first thing. 19mm carb came with a 78 main jet. Ran ok. Got much better rpm and low end power. Took off the air box and lost top end.. So figured it was rich, sparkplug confirmed. We are down to a 72 main jet now with no air box (cone filter) to achieve any power whatsoever... Any advice appreciated.
