For now its a replacement stock carb, scoot seems to be maxing out at about 55/kmph (34mph)
Like you said thought, open air filter is likely hindering the performance, so I have some bigger jets on order.

Relocated slightly & simplified the exhaust mount.. just needs some paint.
Got my new seat cover (OEM style) in the mail today.. not bad for $14.

Made up a new rear fender / tail where the OEM piece won't fit anymore. Wrapped it in black vinyl to keep it in theme and factory looking.

Picked up this bad boy for $40 from a guy on Craigslist.. Mounted it up as I was curious to see if the big rocket can I had on there was helping on hindering performance.. turns out it was the latter.
With this new exhaust I got a tonne more acceleration and got an extra 5-10kms out of the top end. It still has more but I think I need to put bigger fuel jets in the carb, as I have more air coming in through the air filter, more going out through the exhaust but have not changed the fuel it gets.
New jets arrive tomorrow, so stoked!

With the new exhaust and a 80 main jet I have managed to get the Spree winding of the speedo (60kmph). I assume i must be hitting 65-70 but will keep playing with it as I think there's plenty more left..
Keeping with the black & Red theme.. had to paint up the new exhaust
First time i've had all the plastics back on since I bought the thing really
Mocking up some decal ideas with electrical tape

Sadly no, that same weekend is an annual Kelowna trip I do with a bunch of classic honda guys (cars, not scoots)
