ok here is my problem, i have bought a jinlun jl50qt4 and was shocked at how slow it goes. i used to have a neo mbk and once the variator washer was removed it did 50mph on the flat with no problems.
can anyone tell me, what the resrticitions are on these scooters, i have looked in the carb and the washer on the needle is on the middle slot, there is no brass screw either, there is no pink wire going to the cdi unit. and so far i cant seem to get the cover off to get to the variator, took all the bolts out put it stuck on hard, will try and get it open with a screw driver. also i know it will help to change the rollers but where do i buy these from and what size/weight do i need? also i notice on the exhaust there is a plastic pipe attached it it so was wondering if this was a restriction, and the ait filter seems to have a lot of pipes going to it, so maybe the restrictions are there? if anyone can help it would be great. cheers ian

I've got the same scoot.......... standard rollerweights were 8.5g, rarely revved over 5500RPM different scoot with 4.7g revs around 7000 most of the time(redlining at 8000 and beyond sometimes) even better with other mods

sure there's pics elsewhere but, this is my Koso freeflow airfilter did I do anything with my CDI? yes, swapped it for an unlimited rev one don't really know what the valve(?) on the exhaust does, but I have blocked the rubber hose that comes from it top speed without redlining dangerously would be between 50 + 55MPH ........................

Also i tryed buying a cdi from scooter assasins and there not accepting payments at present. but i put my scooter on th center stand and reved it up and the rev counter went all the way past 10,000 revs but when i ride the bike it only goes to just below 8,000 revs so im just wondering weather i need a new cdi or weather the roller weights and main jet and air filter and new spark plug will increase my speed and performance?

back to the start is your scoot new or second hand, how many Ks on the clock?
how's your acceleration?

Post by ianshaircompany on Aug 4, 2006 9:44:44 GMT
it is 8 months old i only bought it the other day from a private sale. it has 4440 miles on the clock. the acceleration is not to bad. just takes a long time to get to 35 mph and if i go up a hill it drops to 15 mph and sometimes it can go to 10 mph.
