Thank you Hank for the suggestions!
Some of them are really sound!
Yes, perhaps I will see how the scoot performs in the beginning, before buying anything else!
One thing I do want to do is optimize the CVT!
The only thing I really want to do is increase the ratio, for a higher top speed. I've seen some youtube vids, where the belt can be put higher on the disc (increasing the ratio marginally).
I don't know if rollers will do anything for me, as I first have to see if the acceleration of the scoot is sufficient or not!
If it is, then all I want is more top speed.
Coming to think of it, I don't think I'm going to need a BBK, if I could find and remove some form of limiter (CVT or in the engine). The CVT would be the best, as I could increase both speed and MPG by increasing the gear ratio. Another if the bike has a CDI, which limits the speed, if I could remove it, then the engine could rotate faster, giving me better peak speeds when I need them!
I'm not going to drive on the highway, but when driving on a 40MPH road, it could make the difference between driving 35, and driving 40.

i think the 50mm(83cc) piston is too much you'll find that your oil seals go bad quite fast if you ride long distances. the 72cc kit id recommend and maybe 6.5g/7g weights will do you sufficiently.

SO i have a ATM 50-a with a longcase engine QMB139 engine...IS there any reason i cant fit a 130/60-13 on the rear....suggestions In short: No! In long: On mine the 3.5 tire comes stock, and is a little smaller than the 100/60-10's that are on the specs in the website (which are nowhere to be found btw. 3.5 tires are 3.5*3.5*10. 130/60 are 5*3*10, so the tire will be less wide, but a lot higher. You don't have the clearance to do that. At most you'll have .5 in clearance, take away the mudguard, and PERHAPS you'll be able to fit 100/60-10. |

T3's are short cases too. They do use 100-60-12. Don't see why you couldn't put them on the ATM.

flu: For one, the mudguard is in the way. I'll check maybe tomorrow how much clearance there is between tire and engine

The mud guard can be swapped for one off of a T3.
