    Try replacing the pipe with a performance one, not really a lot you can do to a 50cc bike.

    If you want more power try a big bore kit , but you need to make sure your licence covers it and notify your insurance.

    Have a look on ebay.co.uk, loads of stuff from oversize pistons to pipes.

    Do you realise this is the "net" ?? :rolleyes:

    Can't really help you to be honest because you don't want to help yourself. Ask your mammy to pop down to a bike shop and ask for you.

    Get yourself a Gianelli pipe and rollers,
    Should up the hp just enough to give you the boost you are looking for.

    Remember though, the bikes are designed for the stock pipe they come with. IF you go for a performance exhaust you will wreck the engine.

    I think the Op was looking for advice not where to buy online. He said he doesn't want to buy. I use the net for info/ advice too... that was a very helpful reply......
