Did you notice a difference in the cam? Both my wife`s and my scooters have 80cc kits, orange CDI, aftermarket exhaust, airfilter, rejetted of course. they both run well now but I am always looking to play

The cam is actually awesome, it was a great buy, its bigger than the stock cam and it does lower the rpms some after i dialed in the weights it performs much better its worth buying.

Those cams are as chinese as they get. All the parts he sells are from the same chinese supplier, there is nothing taiwanese about it. Yes the supplier uses the name "taiwan", but it's fake.
The cams don't have a higher lift than the original (they are not visibly different from the original cam). They may be different in timing though, dont have the tools to measure it. They could be copied from the NCY 50cc cam.
A9 is a 125cc cam so it would be unsuitable for the 50cc head anyway. This is not an A9 cam.

my a9 cam was visibly bigger than my stock cam, it does have a higher lift i measured, did lower the rpms by about 500 and says taiwan tomos racing on it or something like that. No matter where it came from or whatever it works much better than the stock cam. Do you have the cam?

Yes I have those cams (text is Tomax Racing on the cam), I also sell parts from that chinese exporter. I could not measure a difference in lobe height between the standard Kymco cam, the Tomax cam and an NCY cam. Could be yours is a different series of the cam, as they may sometimes change the supplier of the their parts. (whichever one is cheaper or in stock at the factory)
I also have 125cc cams, and they have A8/A9 etc.. marks. They wouldn't fit in a 50cc head though.

Put simply. Anyone can say most anything here. When you talk about fines, I wonder who is issueing fines. I have never seen a supplier take sides either. Why should they? I have always found a retailer who bad mouths his competition needs to be watdched carefully too.
Looks like all the best venders have been driven off this site. Sorry tosee that

The cam will lower your rpms, you may have to go slightly lower on your weights.

Do they add more torque? how exactly does the scooter perform differently from stock cam
thanks Mike

For me its stronger torque and midrange power greatly increased.

again, thank you. that was the kind of answer I was looking for. I went from a 350-10 rear tire to a 120/90-10 hoping to get more mph but my scoot will not pull it....real sluggish take off and just gets to about 7500 and will not turn any more rpm..my wife really lets me sit..i hear her laughing and she is pulling away..she is not very nice LOL
