my buddy rides one of these here in SF, guy he bought it from says it came from japan...

cost much to get these things going faster?

first letter of a vin J - japan yamaha factory from Shizuoka Prefecture

stock jog goes 45 and take out washer next to pulley goes about 50 mph +

the minarelli engine doesn't impress me at all, a real japan dio sold in canada will smoke it, find one and you will be king!

Hmm is that so, you'll have to explain this one. So theres a restrictor just in the variator?

And the guy is just selling because he doesnt use it enough, you gotta figure its Texas so scooter tuners are a rarity around these parts.

A real japan dio will do 55mph just by changing the cdi out, now thats a sweet scoot which you will never seein the u.s.

Picked up the Jog and now sitting in my backyard! Woohoo

Already did a speed run and cleaned her up, I'm very impressed so far. Completely stock and completely dirty was able to top out at 47 MPH on GPS!

Power feels comparable to a stock dio type elite but with better gearing.

Pics up as soon as my comp stops acting up

The jog is no big deal but the honda live dio or sr which was brought into hawaii about 15yrs. ago as parts to get around customs went for $4,000 but legal in canada, a shop over here is selling 2 used bennelli scoots, liquid cooled one goes ffor $4,000 and the air cooled goes for $3,500 so my italjet dragster should sell for $4,000 and is legal in the u.s. my japan dio/aero is priceless and i have turned down some crazy offers from japan tourist lol!

What is your point? Your figures and models dont impress me one bit, Italjet is overrated completely, fun to ride but horrible to work on. And if you're paying more than $2k for a 50cc based scooter you're throwing your money away.

I'm completely set having a true Jog, dio style Elite and stroked Jog clone.
