Okay, I have about $500 to spend on some upgrades. What would you forumistas recommend? I am wanting to achieve at least a 55mph cruising speed with a little higher top speed available. I have looked at a few different bores, what are the differences between the Corsa and contessta? Just rev limits? Also looked at Taz's 50mm bbk but haven't heard back from him yet. Figured I would get a 21 or 24 mm IMO carb but will it bolt up with the stock mani? Getting a pg short from deuce later on. Have ruckus vari and 9.8:1 gears. I'm pretty unknowledgable with all this so any help would be very appreciated. Looking for the best bang for my buck but don't mind spending a bit more than budgeted if needed.

if you go bbk you want to get at least 8.44s

Get 8.44 or 8.6 gears.

The higher red line means higher top speed. The powerband is higher.

500-150 pipe -50 gears =300 for intake and bore. I don't know what a IMO carb cost or what it is. So maybe it would have a matching flange. You would be better off upgrading the entire intake to match the bore and pipe.

Meant oko carb. Darn auto correcting.

Oko is not a flange mount carb. Treats usually has the best price for those. Plus, how can you turn down free tacos.
