Thank you guys, definitely willing to learn and get the fingers dirty! Not a problem. And yes, I have been keeping a cover on it ever since day one...which was yesterday! 55 and a little "plus" sounds good to me! I want to learn but keep in mind I have no mechanic b/g. Like to work with my hands though. PS: Tech at sales said to disconnect the red wire from the battery when you know it's gonna sit for a few days without a ride. He said the battery drains regardless if in use or not...Please tell me of the inexpensive mods I can start out with, jetting the carb, a new, bigger carb, etc. The model is the Hornet, the 150 auto, motorcycle style scooter. Not sure of the engine code...

Hi guys, I'm new to this forum but hoping to learn from y'all. First time rider and bought the Motobravo 150cc Automatic Hornet. I really like it but want it to last and I'm not afraid of modifications. Realize it's kinda cheap to begin with but would like some additional power and want it to last. I'm not a mechanic and I keep my bike at an apartment complex so no many places to work on it myself. Tech where I bought it said I might eventually want to try a bigger carb and performance plug. And "jetted" carb but not sure of the terminology. Had also read about gas lines getting kinked, etc. Right now getting 45 mph easily right out of the shop. where do I learn how people are tricking this machine out? Thanks for your help...also, where on the net can I learn the ins and outs of the engine?
