Your Power:Weight Ratio is 1 : 150
This means that for every 150 pounds of weight on your vehicle, you have 1 horsepower. So for every 150 pounds of weight you remove from your vehicle, you will feel the effects of an additional 1 horsepower....
So if i ride via remote control Ill have 2.5 more HP! Wahoo!

Rats nest in the airbox? Could be almost anything. Vacuum leaks maybe? Petcock? Fuel filter? New lines? Spark plug?
Old crud in a gas tank will tarnish a brand new carb right off the bat.

To clarify. I cruise at 8000 max and im at 30mph with 5 gr sliders. I can hit 40 plus but the rpms are screaming. If I go to 5.5 grams I can cruise at 35 which is a more comfortable cruising speed for me and the rpms will be at 8000 but get 5 more mph this way.
All Im saying is that for me top speed is only limited to rpms that are way to high, not that I cant hit higher speeds.

Ive noticed that the last 1/4 throttle is basically not needed. I dont take off or accelerate any faster whether if im at half throttle or wot to cruising speed. The only thing wot will do is give me some more mph if I max out while cruising. I find that i can hit 35 without pegging the throttle and anything else is wasting fuel. To get the extra few mph is not worth the tradeoff in my opinion. There is no noticeable difference like you would notice in a car for example to pegging the throttle at any time.
You should give it a try. That gas gauge will stay higher up longer

So Bintelli....whats the Znen scoop? They are supposed to have better quality control right? So why does my BMS made by Znen have more issues that my 600 TaoTao? I had more wrinkes with this scoot and parts that Ive had to replace. So why does Znen command such high praise?

What would be softer than stock spring with 2000 miles on it?

I dont make new parts work at full price. Its been handled anyway.
AND it wont go back in shape because of crimps from the packing material stuffed in a long with it. If any of you who advertise on here see an order from me and "I have to make it work" dont bother sending it.

If I run 5 gr sliders the scoot runs great from start to finish, which is around 30, then the rpms are way to high beyondd that. I can easily go 40 or more but at 9000 rpms. So the lighter weights dont limit top end, the rpms at those speeds just make it unreasonable. So I run 5.5 and can cruise to 35 at 8000 but dont have much more left. So, heavier weight does not mean higher top speeds.
